Something in the way, yeah, mmm Something in the way, mmm Something in the way, yeah, mmm Something in the way, mmm Something in the way, yeah, mmm. Analysis: The ‘something in the way’ is often translated by fans to be Kurt himself. It’s as if he felt like he was literally just something in the way — of his own life, of others around
Something in the way, to me, was a way of trying to say something but being unable to express it, just feel it. "mmmmmm mmmm" would then be an internal cry, where he is experiencing the emotion as opposed to articulating it.
the "something in the way" is just his way of saying that there is some unknown reason why he feels this way as there is literally something in his way from finding happines and peace of mind. This is why his entire nevermind album is about how he hates society.
