The protagonist feels different from others, but can pretend not to be. He may be sad, but he has a source of light and can still have fun. He thinks he may be silly, but he may just be happy. He hopes that his broken heart can be mended with the help of his partner, and that they can have a good time together. Despite some lessons learned the hard way, he feels good overall.

Nirvana - Short Biography

Nirvana was one of the most influential and iconic bands in the history of alternative rock. Founded in 1987 in Aberdeen, Washington, the band consisted of Kurt Cobain on guitar and vocals, Krist Novoselic on bass and Dave Grohl on drums. With songs like "Smells Like Teen Spirit," "Come As You Are" and "Lithium," Nirvana was at the forefront of the grunge wave that swept through music in the 1990s.

Their second album, "Nevermind", released in 1991, was one of the most influential albums of all time and propelled the band to the top of the charts. Kurt Cobain became a music and pop culture icon, but sadly lost his life in 1994 at the age of 27. After his death, Dave Grohl continued a successful music career with his band, the Foo Fighters, while Krist Novoselic remained active in the world of music and politics.

With their unique sound, rebellious attitude and lasting impact on music, Nirvana remains a legendary band whose influence is still felt today. Their music continues to inspire a new generation of fans, while their contribution to music and popular culture remains undeniable.
