Drain You
Nirvana (fake) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I don't care what you think unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
I travel through a tube and end up in your infection
Chew my meat for you
Pass it back and forth in a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
I like you
With eyes so dilated, I've became your pupil
You've taught me everything without a poison apple
The water is so yellow
I'm a healthy student
Indebted and so grateful
Vacuum out the fluids
Chew my meat for you
Pass it back and forth in a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
I like you, you, you, you, you, you
One baby to another says, "I'm lucky to have met you"
I don't care what you think unless it is about me
It is now my duty to completely drain you
A travel through a tube and end up in your infection
Chew my meat for you
Pass it back and forth in a passionate kiss
From my mouth to yours
Sloppy lips to lips
You're my vitamins
I like you
The lyrics of Nirvana's song "Drain You" seem to be a commentary on the nature of codependent relationships. The opening lines depict a conversation between two people who recognize their mutual dependence, with one telling the other, "I'm lucky to have met you." However, the singer's self-absorption becomes clear when they add, "I don't care what you think unless it is about me." This sets the tone for the rest of the song, as the singer becomes fixated on the idea of draining their partner in order to sustain themselves. They describe themselves as traveling through a tube and ending up in their partner's "infection," which could be interpreted as a metaphor for the toxic dynamic they share.
The chorus of the song reinforces the idea of the singer using their partner as a means of sustenance, with lines like "Chew my meat for you / Pass it back and forth in a passionate kiss / From my mouth to yours." This imagery is both grotesque and intimate, further emphasizing the complicated nature of the relationship being depicted. Meanwhile, the bridge of the song describes the singer becoming so deeply entrenched in the relationship that they lose sight of their own identity, with lines like "With eyes so dilated, I've became your pupil / You've taught me everything without a poison apple." In the end, the song's final lines suggest that the singer has come to rely on their partner like a drug or vitamin, proclaiming, "You're my vitamins / I like you."
