The Max Levine Ensemble Aren’t All Songs Political? Aren’t All Songs Vaguely Self-Referential?
Saw you hangin’ ‘round the corner, I think you wrote something about it
It was a metaphor, it was something ‘bout an ice cream shop
You remembered how your friends said you knew how to have fun
So you went to their party and watched them all get drunkYou went dancin’ at a show and you stayed out pretty late
And you wrote a song about it and someone put it on a mixtape
What they didn’t know was how far you could take it
Your heart slowly eroded before you let them break itAnd the part of me that gets sad saw you feeling alone and was confused
How you knew that you were loved but couldn’t find someone to love youSpent a week in California, and they said it made a difference
Your friend came down from Boston just to see you off
At least that’s what he said, and it was partially true
He said would you write me a letter
You said that’s the one thing that I can’t doAnd I would love to get to know you
Everybody seems to miss youBest TMLE song.
