Oh the desolation to come up with the realization that what I used to call enthusiasm is nothing but mania...

"Broken heart and broken bones,

Think of how the castrated horse feels"

Mind : blown

Kurt Cobain was extremely well-read!

I found out these bits of lyrics refer to a Freudian theory.

Disclaimer: I didn't understand it fully, because as everyone knows, psychoanalysis is very complex.

Basically there's something with the father and a horse, in the case of neurosis.

A horse is substituted to the father, in order to resolve a conflict of hatred. Then only love of the father is conscious as the object of hatred is now the horse, and even the horse himself is not hated, but feared, rather. This is a repressive dynamic, motivated by a fear of castration.

[Text: "What throws the subject into phobia, is the threat of castration. Freud insists on the ambivalence conflict at play for the tiny Hans torn between love, hate and rivalry feelings he has towards his father. The phobia comes here at play as an attempt to resolve this conflict. The fear of the retorsions his father could exert against him explains the angst. These fears cannot be qualified as a symptom as this reaction is justified. The neurotic trait is explained by the substitution of horse to father. The making of the phobic object, by transfer, allows for a solution to the conflict. The angst actually moves to another object and therefore only love for the father remains conscious. Hatred is repressed, including towards the substitute to the father : the horse is not hated, but simply feared. The repression is motivated by the angst of castration." - La clinique Lacanienne n°9] (Translated by myself from French > English)

(Interpretation) Cobain was all-too conscious of the hatred he had for his father, hence the castrated horse. And he was a father himself...
