• Here, Anne-Marie paints a picture of those reckless teenage years.
  
  Fall in love, broken heart
  Break the rules, drink too much
  We're all a mess, but I guess
  This is what it feels like to be young
  
  Being young may have had its ups and downs, but those youthful experiences are universal rites of passage.
