Fellow metal scholars, this video is full of symbolism and references. In Utero turns 29 this week and I've decided to deep dive into the signs and symbols of Heart-Shaped Box, by Nirvana. Kurt mentions various plants and flowers in these lyrics, such as orchids, angel hair and baby's breath. There's also many links to birth, motherhood, reproductive organs, reproduction, sex, and so on.
Besides, there's also themes of addiction, withdrawal, abuse and others.

I believe the lyrics are very poetic and it's amazing how able Kurt was, to map so many concepts using few words.

Lyrics:
She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black
Hey
Wait
I got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey
Wait
I got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Hey
Wait
I got a new complaint
Forever in debt to your priceless advice
Your advice
Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
Cut myself on angel hair and baby's breath

Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back
