Kurt Donald Cobain (February 20, 1967 – April 5, 1994) was an American singer-songwriter, musician and artist, best known as the lead singer and guitarist of the grunge band Nirvana. Cobain formed Nirvana with Krist Novoselic in Aberdeen, Washington in 1985 and established it as part of the Seattle music scene, having its debut album Bleach released on the independent record label Sub Pop in 1989.
After signing with major label DGC Records, the band found breakthrough success with "Smells Like Teen Spirit" from its second album Nevermind (1991). Following the success of Nevermind, Nirvana was labeled "the flagship band" of Generation X, and Cobain hailed as "the spokesman of a generation". Cobain, however, was often uncomfortable and frustrated, believing his message and artistic vision to have been misinterpreted by the public, with his personal issues often subject to media attention. He challenged Nirvana's audience with its final studio album In Utero (1993).
During the last years of his life, Cobain struggled with heroin addiction, illness and depression. He also had difficulty coping with his fame and public image, and the professional and lifelong personal pressures surrounding himself and his wife, musician Courtney Love. On April 8, 1994, Cobain was found dead at his home in Seattle, the victim of what was officially ruled a suicide by a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head. The circumstances of his death at age 27 have become a topic of public fascination and debate. Since their debut, Nirvana, with Cobain as a songwriter, has sold over 25 million albums in the U.S. alone, and over 50 million worldwide.

Later...
When is later?
All you ever hear is "Later, Henrik, Henrik, later."
"Yes, we know, Henrik,
Oh, Henrik, Everyone agrees, Henrik, Please, Henrik!"
You have a thought you're fairly bursting with,
A personal discovery or problem, and it's:
"What's your rush, Henrik?
Shush, Henrik!
Goodness, how you gush, Henrik!
Hush, Henrik!"
You murmur:
"I only-- It's just that--"
"For God's sake, later, Henrik!"
"Henrik... Who is Henrik?
Oh, that lawyer's son, the one who mumbles.
Short and boring,
Yes, he's hardly worth ignoring,
And who cares if he's all dammed--"
I beg your pardon--
"Up inside?"
As I've often stated,
It's intolerable being tolerated.
"Reassure Henrik, Poor Henrik. Henrik, you'll endure
Being pure, Henrik."
Though I've been born, I've never been!
How can I wait around for later?
I'll be ninety on my deathbead
And the late, or, rather, later, Henrik Egerman.
Doesn't anything begin?
I see the sky so blue and it reaches to me
And then it crashes down...reality sinks deep
And then i coil back and sink into defeat
The day is just so cold, my whispers so discreet
I hide in this dark room, this dark warm eases me
The pain's so far away...this time drags perfectly
It's late and i am here...this night is mine to keep
My perfect quiet place...it's late and i'm at peace
The night sky seems so pure
I breathe so deep and i am here
This dark room is so pure
I've got a job
I've got to move this paper
I guess it's all the same to you
But I can't sit around and wait
Can't Sit around and wait for you.
It never works
You say you'll call me later
And then you never ever do.
I can't sit around and wait
Can't Sit around and wait for you.
Just another cup of coffee,
I'll sit around and wait for you.
I always knew
Yeah, I always knew
You were a liar.
I'm not a king, I'm not a cop.
I'm not here to punish you.
When I really can't see anymore of what the fuss is all
about
It's not my career
To wait and do you favors
I guess it's really nothing do
When I'm running late
You call the undertaker
Because you've got so much shit to do
I can't sit around and wait
Can't sit around and wait for you.
Just one more cigarette,
I'll sit around and wait for you.
I always knew
Yeah, I always knew
You were a liar.
I'm not a king, I'm not a cop.
I'm not here to punish you.
When I really can't see anymore of what the fuss is all
about
Just another cup of coffee,
I'll sit around and wait for you.
Just one more cigarette,
I'll sit around and wait for you.
I guess I really will
I've seen you around a lot before
Always looking like a movie star
Hanging out with all your friends
In your Porsche Cayenne, for sure
All the girls think you're a dream
And I know just what they mean
In your aviator shades
Always rockin' all your faves
Oh yeah
Your life
Boy you really got it made
Your ride
Yeah your Daddy's getting paid
Your house
And all that stuff you got
Well you might think you're hot
But what I wanna say
If that's what it's gonna take to be
The kind of girl you need
If that's what you're looking for from me
What you want to see
Nothing but material things
I'll catch you later
Do me a favor
If that's the kind of vibe you wanna find
And what's on your mind
If all you want is someone you can buy
I'm leaving you behind
'Cause you don't care about the girl inside
You're a player
So see you later
You never wear the same thing twice
I bet that smile cost quite a price
I know you've never worked a day
But you got it anyway
Your life
Boy you really got it made
Your ride
Yeah your Daddy's getting paid
Your house
And all that stuff you got
Well you might think you're hot
But what I gotta say
If that's what it's gonna take to be
The kind of girl you need
If that's what you're looking for from me
What you want to see
Nothing but material things
I'll catch you later
Do me a favor
If that's the kind of vibe you wanna find
And what's on your mind
If all you want is someone you can buy
I'm leaving you behind
'Cause you don't care about the girl inside
You're a player
So see you later
You're a player
So see you later
So you think that I would spend my time
With someone that plays like you
That I would just fall for you
I think you oughta know by now
That's not enough for me
You're wasting your time with me
I'm gonna make you understand
That I'm not impressed with you
Got better things to do
I'm gonna put you in your place
'Cause I think you need to know
Boy that you gotta go
If that's what it's gonna take to be
The kind of girl you need
If that's what you're looking for from me
What you want to see
Nothing but material things
I'll catch you later
Do me a favor
If that's the kind of vibe you wanna find
And what's on your mind
If all you want is someone you can buy
I'm leaving you behind
'Cause you don't care about the girl inside
You're a player
So see you later
If that's what it's gonna take to be
With someone that plays like you
If that's what you're looking for from me
Like I would just fall for you
That's not enough for me
You're wasting you time with me
If that's that kind of vibe you wanna find
Then I'm not impressed with you
Lay low don't put your head up high
This time is not right for you just ask me why
'Cause when I'm looking for some care
Baby I won't be found
By all aside be around so there you go
This island the riff I I'm to blame for this
'Cause I don't see myself round here anymore
So how will you do when I mark this page
And think later , see later that I am no good
So when you're looking for some care
Maybe I did put it there
It's not the sweet on your tongue the taste with a sunday
stare
Put all your high cards aside
The joker's not anywhere but where you lay his coat
You will join , he will win
This island the riff I I'm to blame for this
'Cause I don't see myself round here anymore
So how will you do when I mark this page
Think later , see later that I am no good
This island the riff I I'm to blame for this
'Cause I don't see myself round here anymore
So how will you do when I mark this page
Think later , see later that I am no good
How can you come with me
When you knew all along that you had to go
How could you watch me sleep close to you
Pretending not to know
How could you memorize my name
And forget who I am
How could you think you're still the same
Believing I can
REFRAIN:
It's too late to start pretending
It's too late for a new beginning
Later than the sunset
Later than the rain
Later than never
To love you again
How could you ask for more
Than an innocent smile
Trust in me to stay
How could you close the door
And leave me here
Supposing I'm okay
How could you break down my disguise
And uncover my fears
How could you look into my eyes
Ignoring my tears
Repeat REFRAIN
Yeah, yeah
It's too late
How could you come with me
When you knew all along that you had to go
How could you you watch me sleep
So close to you
Pretending not to know
How could you memorize my name
And forget who i am
How could you think
You're still the same
Believing i can
It's too late to stop pretending
It's too late for a new beginning
Later than the sunset
Later that the rain
Later than ever to love you again
How could you ask for more
With an innocent smile
Trusting me to stay
How could you close the door
And leave me here
Supposing I'm ok
How could you break down
My disguise
And uncover my fears
How could you look into my eyes
Ignoring my tears
It's too late to start pretending
It's too late for a new beginning
Later that the sunset
Later than the rain
Later than ever to love you again
[x2]
Later
I want to talk it out with you
Try to get my message through
That's not all I want to do
Later
Later
I want to feel your body close
From your head down to your toes
Maybe help you fold your clothes
Later
I want to spread the news, don't want to soft soap you
We're meant to live and love together girl Oh babe
There's nothing I can do, oh darling
I love you
There's no way you can stay home, alone, babe
Later
I want to talk it out with you
Try to get my message through
That's not all I want to do
