[Spoken Intro]
Butch Vig: "We're rolling."
Dave Grohl: "Are we or not?"

[Verse 1]
One more day to complete my service
One more high to decay my nervous
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

One more day to complete my service
One more time here to fade my servant
One more day if I find a way
Over

[Chorus]
She seemed to read minds
And I know a later time
We could make it with you
Leave the soul

[Post-Chorus]
Old age
Old age
Old age
Old age

[Verse 2]
One more day to complain my servant
One more doubt here to find a servant
One more time here if I find a way
It's over

Wondering how I'll mantain my cover
One more day here to save my lover
Wondering how I'm gonna find a way
It's over

[Chorus]
She seemed to read minds
And I know a later time
We could make it here with you
Leave the soul

[Post-Chorus]
Old age
Old age
Old age
Old age

[Bridge]
Just you need
And read
You're freak
Hmmm
And knew
You read
You flew
Ooo
Hmmm

[Verse 3]
One more day to complete my circuit
One more high here to find my nervous
Someday I'm gonna find a way
It's over

One more doubt here to claim my supper
I can have anything you want to
One more day if I find a way
It's over

[Chorus]
She seemed to read minds
And I know we were out of time
Breathe the way here with you
Dream the same on the dew
Breathe the same on her
Take a moan on a man
Breathe the shame onto you
Breathe the lie

[Post-Chorus]
Old age
Old age
Old age
Old age
Old age
Old age
Old age

[Spoken Outro: Kurt Cobain]
"Or we could fade out?"

Nirvana

Nirvana was arguably the most successful act of the early 1990s grunge movement that originated in Seattle, Washington. Formed in 1987 in the neighboring city of Aberdeen, they were catapulted into the spotlight four years later with the release of “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and their second studio album, September 1991’s Nevermind.

They are credited with bringing alternative rock to mainstream attention and putting a nail in the coffin of ‘80s hair metal, which was dying a slow death on the charts at that point. In early 1992, Nevermind managed to knock Michael Jackson’s Dangerous from the #1 position on the Billboard charts, cementing their place in American music history.

The band’s career was suddenly cut short in April 1994, when iconic frontman Kurt Cobain was found dead from an apparent suicide. Drummer Dave Grohl has since become a hugely successful frontman in his own right with the band Foo Fighters. Nirvana has gone on to enjoy a musical afterlife in the hearts and ears of successive generations of fans comparable to that of The Beatles and Black Sabbath.
