[Verse 1]
Right into traffic
Driving straight through every light
I've got a habit
Of ignoring obvious signs
It's so peculiar
Who would have guessed?
So what's it to ya?
I'm in love, I must confess
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll put my heart out on display
Now I know that everything's okay
When we're dead and gone, we all decay
But love can carry us until that day
[Chorus]
I found someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
Someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
[Verse 2]
So introspective
Right into life, we're taking a bite
It's all progressive
Take me along for every ride
[Pre-Chorus]
I'll put my heart out on display
Now I know that everything's okay
When we're dead and gone, we all decay
But love can carry us until that day
[Chorus]
Found someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
Someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
It's so peculiar
I found someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
When we're dead and gone, we all decay
But love can carry us until that day
When we're dead and gone, we all decay
But love can carry us until that day
[Chorus]
I found someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
Someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level
It's so peculiar
I found someone on the level, level, level, level, level, level

In a September 2021 interview with DIY Magazine, Poppy described ‘On The Level’ as “her first love song.”
Sometimes love will find you, and it comes at the most unexpected of times, and it’s a nice feeling."
Yes, she tells Office Magazine,
Well, “On the Level” is the first love song I’ve ever written. And I feel that sonically when were recording a song, I have to feel comfortable with the music. I have to feel some kind of personal intensity otherwise, I feel that connection to the recording itself, w...
