Teenage Angst

Teenage angst 

You do not know of happiness

When you re filled with anger

You do not know of manliness

When you re faced with a constant hunger

I wish you could understand

Thats Im no longer a young man

Just a thing, unaware of where it began

...You do not know

You do not know of sex

When you re thinking of death

You do not know of cash-in-checks 

When you re always out of breath

I wish you would just wake up

See that i don't want this to blow up

I don't want to be a grown up

I just dont know

I dont know why i am sad

Although i laugh and smile

I dont know why i feel bad

Although im still a juvenile

I wish i just felt release

I wanna be my own piece

In the grand puzzle - at peace

Peace and happiness - a boy once again

it confusing, how you elaborate confusion so good???

Hey thanks for reviewing,

I think what your talking about comes from the contrasts and switches between 'you' and 'I'. makes it seem like im very anxious or nervy.
