Maisy Stella Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Ho!) I've been trying to do it right
(Hey!) I've been living a lonely life
(Ho!) I've been sleeping here instead
(Hey!)I've been sleeping in my bed,
(Ho!) I've been sleeping in my bed (Hey!)

(Ho!)

(Ho!) So show me family
(Hey!) All the blood that I would bleed
(Ho!) I don't know where I belong
(Hey!) I don't know where I went wrong
(Ho!) But I can write a song (Hey!)

1,2,3 I belong with you, you belong with me you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me you're my sweet (Ho!)

(Hey!)
(Ho!)
(Hey!)

(Ho!) I don't think you're right for him
(Hey!) Look at what it might have been if you
(Ho!) Took a bus to Chinatown
(Hey!) I've been standing on Canal
(Ho!) And Bowery (Hey!)
(Ho!) And she'd be standing next to me (Hey!)

1,2,3 I belong with you you belong with me you're my sweetheart
I belong with you, you belong with me you're my sweetheart

And love, we need it now
Let's hope for some
Cause oh, we're bleeding out

I belong with you you belong with me you're my sweetheart
I belong with you you belong with me you're my sweet (Ho!)

(Hey!)
(Ho!)
(Hey!)

The subsequent lyrics, "I've been sleeping here instead, I've been sleeping in my bed," suggest that the singer has been avoiding social situations and seeking comfort in solitude.

The chorus introduces a glimmer of hope, as the singer expresses a desire for family and a sense of belonging. The lyrics, "I don't know where I belong, I don't know where I went wrong, but I can write a song," demonstrate the singer's ability to channel their emotions into creative expression. The repetition of "1,2,3 I belong with you, you belong with me you're my sweetheart" reinforces the idea of finding that sense of belonging in another person.

So background: it was just a pre show soundcheck and their mom (who was against the girls being performers, insisting that they have a normal childhood) surprised them at the last minute by inviting them to "do that song that you've been working on" in their bedroom at home. The girls had no warning, and only the crew and stage hands were there, but the band on stage joined in and helped make it special. In the show, the girls had never played with a band, just hung out in their room singing together.
Seeing it in the show, in context made it so much better.

Yeah, there's nothing sadder than two kids having the time of their lives and enjoying immense talent. Any reasonable parent would be weeping over what a tragedy that is. 🙄
