And now that it’s gone on long enough and there’s actually a story, in a way-- I mean, still I think every night that you leave, I think, ‘God, my life’s so f*&king boring compared to so many people that I know, we don’t deserve to have a book written about us’” – Kurt Cobain in the beginning of “About A Son”
