I cant believe this compelling song has zero comments on it... Its one of my recent favorites. Very sad, though the tune is upbeat

Yeah, these are good lyrics, very straightforward and unpretentious, the language is very very simple and the insights are very true. He always said his lyrics weren't autobiographical, but he said a lot of things. When you think of songs like "My Old Man" and his own history of violence and fascination with S&M, it seems likely that he knew what he was writing about. "A coward and a bleeder" - ha! That's so rude and yet there's a brutal truth to it.

@DuncanIdahoTPF good answer I really didn’t tbjnk to would have any :)
