Maxwell is a chracter from Orwell's 'Burmese Days'. His murder is the catalyst for the indian revolution that starts the non-violence movement of Ghandi.
But I doubt that relates to this song. It could....but I think it has more to do with a guy that had a drug overdose. Who really commits the crime in that situation? Dial 999 (911) - they'll tell you it's the drugs and dealers. But no one wants to believe that...they'd rather deny it and go on in their drug enduced fantasies. "Nobody wants to look back"
