    "All in All we’re just another brick in the wall"- Pink Floyd. Those are the words of a song;moreover‚ an anthem that I believe a number of brazen‚ angsty‚borderline‚ rebellious teenagers can relate to.

Where are the figures that can cause a revolution‚ or a revolt‚ for that matter‚ with the youth of this century? In this day and age I feel there is so many kids who have something

    tide rises‚ the tide falls. Darkness settles on roofs and walls‚ But the sea‚ the sea in darkness calls; The little waves‚ with their soft‚ white hands Efface the footprints in the sands‚ And the tide rises‚ the tide falls.
