A cry for helpLOCATION: Home and School , Atlanta GAYEAR: 1999TAGS: Jeremy, Pearl JamPUBLISHED: February 16, 2008This song is based on a true story. Pearl Jam wrote this song because they read a news article about a boy commiting suicide because he was being bullied in school as far as I know. The lead singer was inspired to write a song because it really was like "Whoa this is a real thing and it happens."  Back in my younger days, I heard this song after school one day. My brother was playing the song, and he explained to me that it is about a boy that is pushed to the brink, and he ends up killing himself with a gun in front of the whole class. I think it really exposes the reality of bullies in school, and it's no joke. I'm sure we have all been there. Whenever I think back to the harder days of adolescence Jeremy comes to mind.Â
