Cover art for You Know You're Right lyrics by Nirvana

he was addicted to heroin, and this was the last song he wrote before he shot up and blew his head off :/ i think its pretty clear, maybe just cause i listened to this song over and over when i felt the same way. "you know youre right" he probably had about a million people telling him what to do, giving him advice, telling him things that he knew were true, but still didnt listen to. he wants to kill himself and is telling everyone else before he does that they were always right. but just cause you hear all the right words doesnt mean you can listen..

I will never bother you I will never promise to I will never follow you I will never bother you

Never speak a word again I will crawl away for good

he hates himsself, and feels like a burden, so he thinks it would be in everyones best interest to dissappear.

I will move away from here You won't be afraid of fear No thought was put in to this I always knew it would come to this

he never had much hope, and always had the thought in the back of his mind that came out the day he died.. you wont be afraid of fear, he means, i think, that nobody would have to fear he was hurting them anymore by his actions and choices.

Things have never been so swell I have never failed to fail

Pain You know you're right life sucks just as much as always, and again hes telling everyone else that they were right about him.and his mistakes.

I'm so warm and calm inside I no longer have to hide Let's talk about someone else

hes on heroin, and since he already admitted everyone else was right about it, he doesnt want to talk about it.

Steaming soup against her mouth Nothing really bothers her She just wants to love herself

courtney not caring. dumb bitch. she just wants to love HERSELF not him

at the end he just keeps saying you know youre right, his last words to the world basically before he killed himself. the was saying he was leaving so as to not feel like a burden any longer, adadmitting he knew he was wrong and knew what he was probably hearing from people about his adiction and his BAD life choices was true, he just couldnt bring himself to listen, but felt bad for not listening all the same, so its almost an apology for not taking the advice, and a goodbye at the same time

Finally, someone who got it. It is so obvious, yet nobody seems to get it. Courtney is my mom.

Finally, someone who got it. It is so obvious, yet nobody seems to get it. Courtney is my mom. Although this song doesn't correlate to my life perfectly, it does come awfully close. I do listen. I also put advice into action. Desperately wanting and needing the advice to be correct, and most importantly, quickly effective.
