This is Corgan's stinging attack on his old girlfriend. That woman is Courtney Love. He figured out that she was 'an angel with [her] wings glued on' and got out of her life. It's a vicious song about an even more vicious woman. 'Let me out' is the refrain he must've been repeating to himself before he finally did. She soon hooked into Cobain and made her mark, though.
