About this song
- This song is actually about German author Franz Kafka and his first time making a road trip in America. Kafka wrote a book about his experiences in this road trip which was the direct inspiration for this song. “Ive never been [to] America is the thoughts Kafka had that inspired him to make the road trip, and that chorus is also evidence that this song is not about a self centered America, although I appreciate your efforts of giving this bio a little bit of an actual bio. The references to never really "been in love” is in reference to how bleek and depressing Kafka’s storytelling is, often depicting loveless ideals. Its also to tie into the theme throughout this album of “Love not being love enough” .
