permanently tired
I know you're laughing

"What's a lifetime of achievement if I pushed you to the edge. But you were too polite to leave me." - coney island (feat. The National)
One that speaks to me is "You Know You're Right", recorded by Nirvana only months before Kurt's suicide (and the final song the band recorded together). To me, it reads like a suicide note. This is only one version of the lyrics - the exact words differ depending on the source, and it's the subject of endless debate among fans.
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
I will move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
I always knew it would come to this
Things have never been so swell
I have never failed to fail
Pain
Pain
Pain
You know you're right
You know you're right
You know you're right
It's so warm and calm inside
I no longer have to hide
There's talk about someone else
Sterling silver begins to melt
Nothin' really bothers her
She just wants to love herself
I will move away from here
You won't be afraid of fear
No thought was put into this
I always knew it'd come to this
Things have never been so swell
And I have never failed to fail
