Built to Spill "You Were Right"

- The writer of the song is going through a difficult time in his life. I can conclude this because the singer says "we're still running against the wind." 
- The singer is angry and confused about what he is going through. I can conclude this because of the way that the electric guitar is being played loudly as though he's taking out his anger on the guitar during the bridge of the song. Also, the guitar doesn't have a constant loudness, it keeps growing louder then diminishing throughout different parts of the song. 
- The overall song is really effective because it all works together to make that single effect that he is angry and confused. The music helps build on that and looking  at the lyrics does too.
