The High Heat Lyrics

She wants to die
Like people do
Shallow clicking
Summer or sickening
In that room

High in the heat
A white-hot beehive
Well, she was doomed

She has a wind
To offer the sky
She couldn't stop sinking
She thought she wasn't thinking
She wanted to die

She wants to live
Like people do
She feels like giving
It all away
All to you

Cover art for The High Heat lyrics by Wilco

The disjointed sound of the drums and piano really connect well with the lyrics of this song. For some reason it reminds me of the book The Bell Jar.
