The repitition in this song is so powerful. It doesn't end, it's all just one long dark, dreary experience. Every time it pauses, it just starts right back up again the same way it was. Something's still in the way. It ends in the same way it begins, for no reason, dark, and alone, with no hope or direction.

For a long time it was believed that the lyrics of the song spoke about the life of the singer who, as a teenager, lived on the streets of Aberdeen in Washington after being kicked out of his home, and who survived by sleeping and fishing under the street bridge. Young.
However, it was not until 2001 that Cobain's biography, Heavier than Heaven by writer Charles Cross, confirmed that during the four months that Cobain lived on the streets, he slept in various places such as cardboard boxes, hallways of buildings abandoned, waiting rooms in town hospitals, etc. And that he wrote the lyrics imagining what it would feel like to be a person who lives under the bridge and is slowly dying of an illness, since that was a kind of fantasy that the singer had.

I love how the song at the beginning of the film is full of dread and angst, but by the end, turns hopeful instead. Nothing about the song is altered, but the context changes everything.
