Lyric discussion by Lusus_Naturae 

God whats wrong with you people? This is about Kurt's old girlfriend named Toby Vail from Bikini Kill. She broke up with Kurt, and it emotionlly drained him. He still had feelings for her even after the break-up "Loves you so much it makes me sick"

And about the comment about Courtney turning Kurt on Heroin.....Get your shit checked out before you post it. Kurt first tried Heroin in 1990 with a friend in Olympia, BEFORE he met Courtney. FUUUCKKK!

No it was in 88 when he first used heroin. He never really became addicted until late 1990.

I agree with you.. I actually made an account just to reply to you lol.

from wiki - “an aortic aneurysm occurs in the main artery carrying blood from the left ventricle of the heart. When the size of an aneurysm increases, there is a significant risk of rupture, resulting in severe hemorrhage, other complications or death”.

For me this song is about love, sex, frustration, a broken heart, drugs.

The song starts out with him lusting over someone he loves. But it can’t happen, no matter how much he wants it.

So he gets high.

@Lusus_Naturae I always felt this song was about shooting speedballs. Im bi polar and an ex heroin/cocaine addict, this describes exactly how a speedball feels, or using heroin to regulate your ups, cocaine to regulate the downs.

An error occured.
