R.I.P.

Bikini Kill

i cant say everything about it
in just one single song
i cant put how i feel in a package
and sell it back to everyone

but wait
theres another boy genius whose fucking gone

i hope the food tasts better in heaven
i know theres lots of rad queer boys up there
i hope evertime they talk to you
they know they're lucky to be your friend

cuz look
theres another boy genius whose fucking gone
and i wouldnt be so fucking mad so fucking
pissed off if it wasnt so fucking wrong
its all so fucking wrong
its not fair - its not fair - its not fair

but no one said life was easy
yeah but no one said - no one said
nothings supposed to happen right?
no, no one told me anything
to prepare me for fucking this

theres another boy genius whose fucking gone
dont tell me it font matter
dont tell me ive had three days to get over it
it wont go away
it just wont go away

    obviously not every song about someone dying is about kurt cobain. but THIS song could definately be about him, because kathleen was friends with him

Both as a standalone and as part of the DSOTS album, you can take this lyric as read. As a matter of public record, Jourgensen's drug intake was legendary even in the 1980s. By the late 90s, in his own words, he was grappling with massive addiction issues and had lost almost everything: friends, spouse, money and had nearly died more than once. "Dark Side of the Spoon" is a both funny & sad title for an album made by a musical genius who was losing the plot; and this song is a message to his fans & friends saying he knows it. It's painful to listen to so I'm glad the "Keith Richards of industrial metals" wised up and cleaned up. Well done sir.

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”

He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
