This lyric is a tribute to Nirvana, and written the way they wrote many songs. Doesn't have a lot of lyrics, they're very repetitive, but it's meant to be that way. Kurt Cobain wrote a lot of songs this way, and I really admired can not having to use a lot of different words to get the point across. I didn't have sex until I was 18 and I had graduated high school. All my friends were having sex, but I was so naive, and a little bit tentative when it came to women I remember going out with a girl, we went to where everybody goes parking, and I just sat there, I didn't even try to kiss her. We never went out again, and later in life I found out when I was talking to her on facebook, that she thought I didn't like her. In reality I did, but I was just too scared to show her any affection. Maybe I held her hand once or something like that. So this lyric is about when I was 17
This is a lyric about a rock and roll star who's trying to resurrect his career later in life. He still believes he can "the man". But he realizes once he is in the position to be the man, he can't do it. It's sad to see, but he knows the reality of the situation. He never did it for the notoriety or the for the money, he did it for the fans. But he knows that he can't perform the way he used to or wants to, and that would be a disservice to his fans. Now that he knows his career is pretty much over he packs his bags and doesn't have any destination at all.
A broken lullaby is a metaphor for the voices in our heads telling us that we are not enough and that our life is meaningless. The lullaby symbolically tries to put you to sleep, but sleep, in this sense, is neverending. Our everyday demons try to make us believe that our sadness is forever, even though it isn't.
This song is about living with someone who's bad for you and whose antics can't help but get on your nerves, be it a significant other, a sibling or a parent.
This lyric is called life, it's basically talking about how we really don't appreciate what life encompasses. Most of us take it for granted, and then when it's too late then your time is almost up, you wish you had more time to do the things you wanted to do. We only get one life that I know of, even though I do believe in life after death, and that may be something I write about in another lyric, but nonetheless that's the way it is. There's so many things that I've done in my life that I wish I could take back but I can't. There's so many times when I thought I'd have another chance and I did it. Today, life is very precious to me, and I enjoy every moment of it no matter what my struggles might be. There's always going to be happiness and there's always going to be sadness it's always going to be easy street and there's always going to be struggle Street. Make the best of it.
