And for this gift I feel blessed
Our little group has always been
And always will until the end
Hello, hello, hello, how low?
And I forget just why I taste
Oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile
I found it hard, it was hard to find
Oh well, whatever, nevermind
hello, hello, hello, how low?
With the lights out it's less dangerous
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
A mulatto
An albino
A mosquito
My Libido
Yay, a denial
Tell me exactly what makes this youth relatable

Is that really hard to understand?... Everything in bold is all metaphors for gods sake, of course its gonna sound obscure, that dosent mean it is persay, the "load up on guns, bring your friends" at the begining is a reference to the songs main plot...The song is about a youth gang that prepares for a shootout, and the songs protoganist is confused about weither or not he should leave the gang.
Maybe that will help a little, but if you dont even know what Cobain had in mind when he wrote it (like many people) then of course it wont make any sense to you, that dosent mean it wont make sense to others.
I agree that the Chorus lyrics not in bold make little sense, and Kurt himself said that was intentional, he said those lyrics of the song didnt directly mean anything, but he put them in the song to somewhat confuse people into trying to figure out what it means, as a joke, kinda like what John Lennon did in I Am The Walrus.
