At the peak of a person's angsty (pre)teen years, they often feel misunderstood and as if no one understands them. People take to expressing themselves through their looks, the way they dress, and the music they listen to. A mood that these teens often take on is a "scene" or "emo" phase where they basically have a "f- the world" attitude. From the constant "it's not a phase, mom" to the excessive eye amounts of eyeliner, from the dark clothes and dyed hair to the distinctive music, the scene can be pretty intense.
