In the middle of this, I suddenly thought OMG, they're dissing Kurt Cobain!  It turns out that Cobain wouldn't kill himself until the following year, but I do think this song is about singers who become posthumously more famous, "saviors" with fan clubs.  And it is quiet and loud in turns and that unique Jellyfish blend of post-'70s pop, rock, and Pop Rocks.
