This exploration of romance with a LA girl in the digital age references "Vicodin on Sunday night." Frontman Matthew Murphy explained to NME: "Vicodin was used because the chorus was just too cheery. I was like, 'Let's shove something miserable in there.' Everyone loves downers in LA, it's very strange."
Most of Matthew Murphy's lyrics are negative and dark, but the words for "Give Me A Try" are upbeat. He told American Songwriter magazine: "With that one, I figured out how to write a positive song. That song came into existence after a long writing stint for this third album. To me, that was exciting. It opened a whole new world."
