What is the meaning behind Rape Me lyrics?
When we explore how the lyrics were meant to make us feel, Nirvana's song 'Rape Me' deals with topics like vulnerability, exploitation, and defiance. The word 'rape' is used repeatedly as a metaphor rather than literally, meaning that one feels abuse or the like was done to him while at the same time, the person is showing a little bit of rebellion and wants to get his/her power back over the one who has mistreated him/her. Rape me lyrics mainly bring forth such feelings as angst, despair, and anger, as well as insecurity and anxiety. The song reveals these feelings simultaneously through the concepts of victimization, trauma, and hopelessness. The lyrics are direct about violence in a sexual context and discuss themes that are too strong and inappropriate for anyone below 17 years. The word 'rape' is not only repeated but also so positioned in the whole scenario that it is an indication of adult content which most parents would deem unfit for kids. ✔️

i agree with exactly what kurt, all the way at the top, says. it's about the way the music industry treated, or raped, kurt cobain.

It doesnt really matter what kurt (RIP!) made it mean for him, it matters what it means to you and how you can relate to them

No, This song is about the business aspect of music. How the business men used him and the band for their own profit. They raped him of his talent, his strength. They acted like they cared about him.

this song is not about drugs omg, this song is about how people take advantage of you, you give so much of yourself and they arent willing to give back when you need it

Rape Me is about drugs!! Duhh. Back then they couldnt sing about drugs so they had to descize them. And thats what Kurt did with this song. Kurt Cobain R.I.P. 'God is Gay'
