Sonic Youth - Junkie's Promise

[Verse 1]
A hundred dollars used to be more than enough
And now a hundred times a day and still it's not enough
People always tell me you get what you deserve
All I know is all and all is all I've heard

[Chorus]
I heard you say, "You know I hate myself
But I love everybody else"
And did you say, "I can't escape myself"?
And then you did and now there's no one else

[Verse 2]
To blame you know that I know yeah that times are rough
I'd like to help you out but things are rather tough
People always tell me that you've got to lend a helping hand
Nothing in return is all I expect from you my friend

[Chorus]
I heard you say, "You know I hate myself
But I love everybody else"
And did you say, "I can't escape myself"?
And then you did and now there's no one else

[Chorus]
I heard you say, "You know I hate myself
But I love everybody else"
And did you say, "I can't escape myself"?
And then you did and now there's no one else

Despite some seemingly obvious references, Thurston Moore insists this song isn't specifically about Kurt Cobain.
