Sex
Degreed Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You, you look so innocent and free
But, it doesn't matter what I do
Cause you don't seem to bother
If I told you one more lie
Would you stay here by my side
Sex is all we have in common (I need it baby)
Sex is all we need to get by (stay here by my side)
Sex where you go I will follow (I need it baby)
Sex don't wanna be alone tonight (stay here by my side)
We, we are just searching for someone
To take us through the night
But it won't last forever
If you stay here one more night
Maybe we can make it right
You, you look so innocent and free
If I told you one more lie
Maybe we can make it right
In "Sex" by Degreed, the singer addresses someone who appears innocent and carefree, but the lack of a reaction to the singer's actions suggest that the relationship is based purely on physical intimacy rather than an emotional connection. The lyrics suggest that sex is the only common ground between them and the only thing that can sustain the relationship. The singer asks if telling one more lie would make the person stay with him, but the bleak tone of the song suggests that this is a temporary solution to a deeper problem.
The lyrics explore the theme of casual sex and its potential emotional consequences. The singer recognizes that the connection with his partner is not genuine and admits that he is willing to lie to keep them together. The song points to the emptiness of a relationship based only on physical attraction and the need for genuine emotional connection to sustain it.
Despite its bleak message, "Sex" has a catchy pop punk sound with a hook-laden chorus. The upbeat melody serves as a contrast to the melancholy lyrics, creating an appealing dynamic. The song showcases Degreed's ability to blend genres and create a unique sound.
