A Quote by Kurt Cobain

My lyrics are a big pile of contradictions. — © Kurt Cobain
My lyrics are a big pile of contradictions.
I'm still fighting for parts - it's not like I'm sitting with a big pile of scripts putting them in a 'yes' and 'no' pile.
I'm a big fan of lyrics - lyrics are the thing that move me in certain ways.
Frank [Zappa] was not a big fan of having lyrics, but sometimes he had things to say that lent themselves to lyrics.
Jesus lived a life that was full of joy and contradictions and fights, you know? If they were to paint a picture of Jesus without contradictions, the gospels would be fake, but the contradictions are a sign of authenticity.
I'm definitely interested in exploring human contradictions. Contradictions are what make us human - it's what defines us as human beings. Contradictions are what make characters interesting, and I've been lucky to be presented with characters who have a lot of contradictions.
I don't know what other singers feel when they articulate lyrics, but being an 18-karat manic-depressive and having lived a life of violent emotional contradictions, I have an overacute capacity for sadness as well as elation.
The equivocations, the confusions, the contradictions. There's no way we can live through or comprehend something so big that happened so long ago. We've lost true history. But if we are willing to tolerate the contradictions, and if we suffer through events rather than ticking them off, we may at least get closer to understanding what happened than if we grip the handrail of a carefully polished and reassuringly heroic narrative.
I think many people have contradictions to them and I love characters that deal with those contradictions.
It is not that I love contradictions: life is contradictory. Existence itself is possible only through contradictions.
I think people have to choose between living with contradictions or painting themselves into a corner. I have a lot of contradictions.
There is a lot of contradictions of mermaids as a symbol. I'm always interested in contradictions.
The Devil craps on the big pile
When I create lyrics, I just go off of energy. Sometimes I write down my lyrics on my phone and most times I remember the lyrics in my head.
We treat the lyrics like the woman any man wants to impress the most. We give the lyrics all the attention we can. I'm not sure other formats are remembering that the lyrics are what it's all about.
I write to keep from going mad from the contradictions I find among mankind - and to work some of those contradictions out for myself.
Sometimes I get ideas for lyrics in anyplace, but I work a lot in the studio. So I collect little bits of lyrics. I go through the box of lyrics I have and see if something fits.
