Can someone explain this in dumb person language? All I get is that the yield that bonds give is below zero, meaning you lose money holding them? And bonds are buying debt on faith the issuer will pay, and as the issuer pays, you get dividends.

And I think the interest rate is inversely proportional to the amount the bonds pay or something like that?

Just explain in simple language. :)
