Song lyrics
Warm sun, feed me up
And I'm leery, loaded up
Loathing for a change
And I slip some, boil away

Swallowed, followed
Heavy about everything but my love
Swallowed, sorrowed
I'm with everyone and yet not
I'm with everyone and yet not
I'm with everyone and yet

Just wanted to be myself
Hey you said you would love to try some
Hey you said you would love to die some
In the middle of a world on a fishhook
You're the wave
You're the wave
You're the wave

Swallowed, borrowed
Heavy about everything but my love
Swallowed, hollowed
Sharp about everyone but yourself
Swallowed, oh no
I'm with everyone and yet not
I'm with everyone and yet not
I'm with everyone and you're not
I'm with everyone and yet

Piss on self-esteem
Forward, busted knee
Sick head, blackened lungs
And I'm simple, selfish son

Swallowed, followed
Heavy about everything but my love
Swallowed, oh no
I'm with everyone and yet not
I'm with everyone and yet not
I'm with everyone and yet not

Got to get away from here
Got to get away from here
Got to get away from here
Got to get away from here

I miss the one that I love a lot
I miss the one that I love a lot
I miss the one that I love a lot

Any of you people Nirvana-worshippers? I just wonder. In fact I am one myself for that matter Is it just me or does the lyrics too this song remind a little bit, just a little bit about Nirvanas lyrics? I think so, really. But I also want to say that I only think the lyrics remind me aout Nirvana-style. The rythm, melody and use of instruments does not remind me about Nirvana at all. Of course Kurts lyrics are much better than Bush`, but somehow I see a little resemblement. It`s obviously a result of the influence Nirvana had on these guys. Or did they not like Nirvana? I`m not sure. But one thing is absoloutly certain! No one, and not even Bush can ever compare too Nirvanas unique lyrics and sound! That`s right Japp, JaPp

But it is a good song! I think so too

No I realize this, but it seem too me like they`re trying to be Nirvana. Or maybe they`re just heavily insapired by Nirvana? If you know what I mean? No `fence, this song is good, but Nirvana is waaay better! And I don`t think Nirvana is overrated. But that is my opinion.

bushs' lyrics are nothing against nirvana's. kurt cobain is the best writer in the whole world.... the song heart-shaped box can proove it but the sound of bushs' songs are pretty similar to nirvana's. maybe that's because they're both grunge???

love the song

I love how Nirvana fans can't keep their love for the fucking band to themselves. They have to talk about Nirvana EVERYWHERE.

To clarify, this is a discussion on BUSH, not Nirvana. If you think that Bush sounds like Nirvana, great, but there's no need to write an essay on how much Nirvana rocks.

I love Nirvana as a band, don't get me wrong, but I HATE some of the fans.

In any case, awesome song, awesome lyrics. One of my favourites.

ok. so i have been a nirvana fan for as long as i can remember, but i think comparing a band to them is just stupid because nirvana is almost in a league of its own, totally uncomparable to any other band. however if the song sounds similar its probably because its grunge..that would make sense.
i do have a question: the lyrics, "in the middle of a world on a fishhook, youre the wave, youre the wave, etc." im stumped on what those mean, please help!

This bush song and bush do rock and resemble nirvana greatly. To back up Nirvana fans it is nearly impossible to not like them. The only possible reason I can think of why people don't like nirvana is because they are so well loved. What people have to think about is how Nirvana made music where it is today, music would be nothing what it is today without them. Their influence is as great as elvis presleys's, british invasion or punk or even better. Nirvana was the band in the early 90's and deserve all the praise they get.
