Nirvana – Come As You Are lyrics
Come
As you are
As you were
As I want you to be
As a friend
As a friend
As an old enemy
Take your time
Hurry up
The choice is your
Don't be late
Take a rest
As a friend
As an old memoria
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

Come
Dowsed in mud
Soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend
As a friend
As an old memoria
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria

And I swear
That I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
Memoria
Memoria
Memoria {don't have a gun}

And I swear
That I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun
No I don't have a gun

    I have noticed that Kurt (Nirvana's singer) is using two important Latin words or meanings here.

    The word "memoria" is a Latin word for memory. The word "come" is a shortened version of the word "comes" and this word too is Latin and it stands for "companion", "friend".

    The only part that makes any haunting memory is the part where Kurt writes/sings: I don't have a gun.
