I haven't thought about filter in forever. I was a big fan of them back in the day. Do you think this song is actually about Kurt Cobain, like my friends told me?

Who knows but they claim it is about some state congressman who blew his brains out at a press conference.
"The song was written about the public suicide of Pennsylvania state treasurer R. Budd Dwyer on January 22, 1987, in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. Dwyer had been convicted of bribery charges in December 1986, and was expected to receive a lengthy sentence from U.S. District Court Judge Malcolm Muir."

Interesting. Never heard that before. It's cool how songs ending up having multiple meanings. It makes more sense that kids listening that also listened to nirvana would make a different connection..
