This Kansas wheat won't break us
And another drink won't make us free
The oven's wide open, hold your breath and see.
Hold your breath and see . . .

I've always enjoyed how "Heather Angel" closes out A Thousand Leaves. It's one of the more unsettling Sonic Youth songs I've ever heard, which is precisely why I like it punctuating the end of an album that, at times, sounds beatific. Hell, even the song itself starts off as a a lullaby before splitting itself open and pouring out it's chaotic, abrasive cacophony all over the room.

There must be something else
There must be something good

The difference in Mark's lyrics from album 1 to 2 was massive in positivity

Sleek, but not sober.
Something in me open, unfinished.
I pull the sheet back off your unconscious form.
Shed the liquor from my coke bottle.
I get what i came for.
I find closure, i achieve [ ? ]
I take the matches from my pocket.
Yeah, i strike one.
I count to ten.
And i let the matches fall.
I let the matches fall.

I pull along side you, kick open the door
You turn to me and smile and then, boy do I feel good
And if the loving don't kill us
Then we won't wanna die

Divers as a whole deals with a lot of ideas around time, so it ends with:

I've always found the link between the last song and first song of an album fascinating.
