If what I said above is correct, if this song is about Rosemary Carroll... it almost comes across as accusatory.
"You've got away, got away, got away with things.
You got away, got away, got away with things."
The second line is a play on the first. It goes from "You HAVE a way with things" to "you GOT away with things."
"Truth ain't gonna change the way you lie.
Youth ain't gonna change the way you die."
The discussions on the websites that I found revealed that Rosemary Carroll believed that Kurt Cobain was murdered. The first line here mentions truth---did she know the truth, perhaps as a result of her attorney-client privilege with Courtney Love? The second line mentions "the way you die." Discussion involving Ms. Carroll all pertain to whether Kurt was murdered or committed suicide--aka, "the way you die."
"False starts, young hearts get shattered.
Pick up the pieces coming down around you.
You ran away, ran away, it was right on cue."
The "young hearts get shattered" line can refer to Kurt and Courtney's divorce.
That's all the interpreting that I have in me right now.
That's kind of the first thing I thought when I heard the song too. I hate the people who say every Foos song is related to Kurt or w.e., and this one probably isn't either, but there's actually good reason to think it could be. I'm sure he knows another Rosemary, or it's just a name he chose to represent someone, but I could definitely see how it could be about Rosemary Carroll, especially with your interpretations.

This has nothing to do with Courtney Love or Kurt Cobain. I heard Dave was actually in love with some mystery woman who ended up marrying someone else and he was devastated. In his albums since The One he writes about this often - its a recurring theme.

Great ideas and interpretation, I think it's right on as far as who it refers to.....
