Hi, i think Kurt used the story of the kids to explain about life and Buddhisim. Buddhist say that this life is full of pain and desires, and the way to stop the pain is enlightment, Nirvana. When he sings "I see others just like me
Why do they not try to escape?" it seems to me that he is talking about the ignorance(not to insult anybody) of the people that are not trying to reach the Nirvana. About "She pushes food through the door" i think its got to do with the tempations that Buddha sufered when he was meditating to reach the Nirvana. "My whole existence is for your amusement" seems to me that he is regreting God in that line. Another thing i have noticed, is that when he sings "Nirvana" for the first time, his voice is filled with anger, but the next times he sings it, he goes calmer and calmer. its like his anger goes down when he says "Nirvana". Its like a mantra of his own. This is just my opinion.
Peace!
OM MANI PADME HUM
