“Max and the Wild Things self-titled album is indescribable…the talent is indisputable”
~The Deli Magazine

"Concrete evidence that Tennessee continues to distil raw proof talent the caliber of a first rate Jack Daniels".
~SibLINGSHOT ON THE BLEACHERS

“Sounds like straight-up chillin”
~Adam Gold, Nashville Scene

“Sonically pleasant collection of the least obviously catchy songs of the year”
~Seth Graves, Nashville Scene

"The self titled album consists of 12 wonderfully constructed tracks that lead you on what can only be described as a musical journey throughout various pivotal era's in music"
~Not Another Blog

"This Nashville-based band plays it straight and direct...and the approach works. These songs were recorded onto 2" analog tape which may explain the nice organic sound. These guys play hummable guitar-driven pop/rock that is (thankfully) lacking in unnecessary overdubs. Songs are what drive this album...and there are plenty of smart substantial cuts to crunch your teeth into."
~Babysue

Enough
Max and the Wild Things Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

나 이제 스치듯 다가서
마지막인 듯 미소로 인사하죠

더 이상 해 줄 것이 없어
마른 눈물로 이별을 말하죠

미워하려 할수록 마음 (마음) 깊이 커져 버린 사랑
서로 함께할 수 없다고 결국 또 아플 거라고

추억이라 아름답다고

그래도 이 사랑밖에 몰라서
지친 나 그대밖에 몰라서
세상 모두 날 버린다고 말해도
그대만 곁에 사랑해 그 한마디만
말하게 해준다면 그걸로 나는 돼요

더 이상 해 줄 말이 없죠
마른 눈물로 이별을 말하죠

피해 가려 할수록 여기 혼자 멈춰버린 시간
다시 돌아갈 수 없음에
가슴에 맺힌 눈물을
이젠 그만 흘려보내길

그래도 이 사랑밖에 몰라서
지친 나 그대밖에 몰라서
세상 모두 날 버린다고 말해도
그대 단 한 사람만 내 곁에 있어 주면 돼요

내 상처보다 아플 그대 알기에
이제는 내가 여기서 그댈 지킬게요

나 이 사랑밖에 몰라서
모두 잊어도 남을 한 사람
세상 모두 날 버린다고 말해도
그대만 곁에 사랑해 그 한마디만
말하게 해준다면 그걸로 나는 돼요

그걸로 충분해요

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Max and the Wild Things' song "Enough" describe a love that has reached its end, but the singer is still holding onto it with everything that they have left. The lines "I have nothing else to give, so I say goodbye with dry tears" convey a sense of exhaustion and sadness as the singer has given their all to the relationship, but it has still come to an end. Despite this, they cannot seem to let go of the love that they feel, and admit to loving the person so much that they do not know life without them. The song also discusses how memories of the relationship are beautiful, but the love has become so deep that the singer will be hurt in the end if they continue to try and hold on.

The chorus of the song repeats the idea that the singer only knows this kind of love, and that they only know the person they love. Even if the rest of the world abandons them, they will still love and stay by that person's side. Ending with the line, "it's enough," the song conveys a sense of acceptance and resignation, as if the singer knows that they need to let go but cannot seem to do so.

Overall, "Enough" is a heart-wrenching song about holding onto love despite it causing harm, and the difficulties of letting go of a love that has become all-consuming.
