My interprettion of Nirvana's "come as you are"

the song come as you are is by the band nirvana.

The lyrics are as follows:

Come as you are, as you were
As I want you to be
As a friend, as a friend
As a known enemy
Take your time, hurry up
Choice is yours, don't be late
Take a rest as a friend
As an old

Memory, yeah x4

Come dowsed in mud, soaked in bleach
As I want you to be
As a trend, as a friend
As an old

Memory, yeah x4

And I swear that I don't have a gun
No, I don't have a gun, no, I don't have a gun

Memory, yeah x4
(No, I 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

Memory, yeah x4
I believe that the song means that you should always be yourself, not matter what others think about you. I think that it's saying that what other people think about you cant kill you, and that everybody tries to change how they appear to other people to the point that they come dangerously close to forgetting who they really are.
