I Must Be High

Song byWilco
in AlbumA.M.

You always wanted more time,

To do what you always wanted to do

Now you got it

And I, I must be high,

To say goodbye

Bye bye bye

You never said you needed this

And you're pissed that you missed the very last kiss,

From my lips

And I, I must be high,

To say goodbye

Bye bye bye

And you never looked in my eyes,

Long enough to find any piece of mind

But now you got it

And I, I must be high,

To let you say goodbye

Bye bye bye

About this Song

I Must Be High by Wilco is a poignant song that delves into themes of regret, confusion, and self-reflection. The narrator seems to be grappling with a sense of loss and disillusionment, possibly in a romantic relationship. The chorus's repetition of 'I must be high' suggests a feeling of disbelief or surrealism about the current state of their life. Key moments include introspective lines that touch upon failed expectations and the struggle to understand where things went wrong. It encapsulates the emotional turmoil of realizing that one's perceptions may have been skewed, leading to a sense of betrayal or disappointment.
