NIRVANA

- Lake Of Fire Lyrics

Featuring: Curt Kirkwood

Where the bad folks go when they die
They don't go to Heaven where the angels fly
Go to a lake of fire and fry
See em' again 'til the 4th of July

I knew a lady who came from Duluth
Bitten by a dog with a rabbit tooth
She went to her grave just a little too soon
Flew away howling on the yellow moon

Where do bad folks go when they die
They don't go to Heaven where the angels fly
Go to a lake of fire and fry
See em' again 'til the 4th of July

People cry, people moan
Look for a dry place to call their home
Try to find some place to rest their bones
While the angels and the devils try to make them their own

Where do bad folks go when they die
They don't go to Heaven where the angels fly
Go to a lake of fire and fry
See em' again 'til the 4th of July

What is the meaning behind Lake Of Fire lyrics?


When we take a closer look to the meaning, Nirvana's 'Lake of Fire' is a song that depicts the afterlife of the wicked in the first place and their suffering through the artistic means of a lake of fire and angels. It opens up a whole new perspective of humans longing for a place to exist, all the while, devils and angels are fighting for their souls. In this very dilemma, the listener is left to mull over the afterlife and the implications of one's acts. According to the lyrics, lake of fire signifies mostly angst, despair, reflection, solitude, and anger. The song not only highlights the issue of afterlife and consequences but also the themes of suffering and loss. There are motifs of death, and the afterlife that with a little caution may not be suitable for small children. The visuals of a 'lake of fire' and 'the bad guys' being sent to a dismal place might be too much for some crowds thus prompting the movie to be rated PG.

The irony about that song it's that how this song "saying all this" about Kurt.
It's pretty sad. The song is amazing as well.

I'm listening to this song right now. Just to think if this band didn't die so young . It's a shame people now days hardly know who nirvana is .
