This is a question The Soundtrack of your Life

For me it has to be The Cooper Temple Clause - Talking To A Brick Wall.
It's not a happy song, however it summed up completely my years in 6th form.

I'd just moved to Wales from Hampshire and I'd been finding it particularly hard- being an extremely English person can't have helped.
Couple this with my reluctance to join the 'popular' crowd in taking the piss out of other people meant that I found myself on the lower rungs of society.

It starts off:

"I'm not quite how I should be
been finding tricks too hard
I'm thinking something must be broken
Cause it's wasn't like this before"

These lyrics perfectly sum me up, before (and after) 6th form I was King of Awesome, however during this time I had my music to sit and listen to at night while during the day I had things thrown at me for being myself.

I'm not going to post the whole story, but whenever I hear this song, even now, I'm reminded of this time of my life and thank god that I'm proved to be stronger than those who tried to bring me down.

Hooray, another TCTC fan
*Clicks*

The end of that song is so hauntingly bitter and angry
