Nirvana – Breed Lyrics 17 years ago
I think the song can be interpreted to be about how people will sometimes conform to expectations, so they do not have to feel afraid. The lyrics, "we can plant a house, we can build a tree," are written the way they are to show how these actions can be meaningless, but people are willing to do these things, because they're afraid of the force of society, the "ghosts."
