Tears tumbling one by one/
I can't believe you could be so cruel/
Sitting in my room alone/
I blast music to drown out my pain/
It doesn't work/
Pieces of the world crash slowly around me/
Mom, I really needed that Xbox!

This is, as the title states, a parody of teenage angst. Rather cynical, but we all have our moments, don't we?
