Tracy was my world
Everything's dead, everything's dead
I don't think so

The story:

My friends and I were in the car; this was back in the early grunge-era 90s, and although 'heavy' emotion was 'in' unlike the fake-PC happy of today, it was still kind of a buzz kill because everyone was stoned, everyone knew the lyrics, the music was turned down just enough for our voices to stand out, and I was auditioning to be a lead singer so I wanted to prove I had the pipes to lead a band and wanted to stand out above the rest. I sure did, with these lyrics. The strange looks continued for an uncomfortably long period and never really broke with laughter--not real laughter, but 'we're gonna try and forget you said anything about this Tracy chick (or dude) and how she ruined your life. Now we see why this song's in your heavy rotation; you've got some issues you need to deal with. I half expected to get cards for therapists after the camping weekend was over.
