EDEN has also claimed that the song took the longest track to finish from ITYTTMOM. It took “heaps and heaps of reworking” and was the “most difficult to get sounding right from a production point of view”.
Sex
Eden Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
What you been thinking?"
'Cause you've been staring at that roof so long I'd swear it's come alive
And she spoke nine words
And now we're sinking
But I can't find it in myself to want to lie to keep this thing from going down
'Cause that girl took my heart
No
I'm laying down my cards
'Cause you said it meant nothing
And I should've kept my silence
But I guess I'm too attached to my own pride to let you know
That all these words meant nothing
And I've always been this heartless
And we were just having sex no I would never call it love
But love
Oh no, I think I'm catching feelings
And I don't know if this is empathy I feel
Just hold on
Remember why you said this was the last time?
So I guess it's...
Let die to let live
And what's good
When both choices I've got have us staring down the barrel to the bullets I can't stop?
And so I stand off
Like indecision's Kevlar
'Til this fear of feeling stops and I'm done
But you
No, I don't know how to forget you
No, I don't know how to forget you
No, I don't know how to forget you
No, I don't know how to forget you
(No, I don't know how to forget you)
'Cause that girl took my heart
(No, I don't know how to forget you)
And I ain't want it back, no
(No, I don't know how to forget you)
A bulletproof restart
Oh no, I think I'm catching feelings and
I don't know if this is empathy I feel
Just hold on
Remember why you said this was the last time?
So I guess it's...
Let die to let live
No, I don't know how to forget you
No, I don't know how to forget you
No, I don't know how to forget you
No, I don't know how to forget you
The lyrics of "Sex" by Eden are a powerful expression of conflicting emotions experienced by someone who has engaged in a sexual relationship with a person they care about deeply. The song's opening lines describe a moment of confrontation, where the singer asks their partner what they are thinking about while they are lost in thought, staring at the ceiling. The partner responds with just nine words that leave the singer feeling uneasy and uncertain, causing them to feel like they are sinking.
The lyrics then explore the complexity of the situation, as the singer describes the walls they have constructed around themselves to avoid feeling vulnerable. They assert that the sexual relationship they had was never love, just sex, but as the song progresses, they begin to question that assertion. They describe catching feelings and feeling empathy for their partner, and struggling with the fear of opening themselves up to emotional pain.
The chorus repeats each time, as the singer expresses their fear of forgetting their partner even though they know they should. The repeated phrase "let die to let live" echoes the theme of letting go of something to move forward, even though it can be difficult and painful.
Overall, the lyrics of "Sex" are a raw portrayal of the tumultuous emotions that can come with an ambiguous sexual relationship, and the difficulty of letting go when you care deeply about someone.

Let go of the past to move on.
And what's good
And what's the right thing to do?
When both choices I've got have us staring down the barrel to the bullets I can't stop?
When both options result in negative consequences that I can't avoid?
And so I stand off
So I hesitate.
Like indecision's Kevlar
As if indecision is my armor.
'Til this fear of feeling stops and I'm done
Until I can overcome my fear of emotions and move on.
But you
But she has an impact on me.
No, I don't know how to forget you
I can't get her out of my mind.
'Cause that girl took my heart
I gave my heart to her.
And I ain't want it back, no
But I don't want it back.
A bulletproof restart
A fresh start with no emotional attachment.
No, I don't know how to forget you
I can't forget about her.
No, I don't know how to forget you
She is still on my mind.
No, I don't know how to forget you
I can't seem to let go of her.
No, I don't know how to forget you
She still has a hold on me.

And I said what's up
What you been thinking
Cause you been staring at that roof so long
I'd swear it's come alive
And she spoke nine words
And now were sinking
But I can't find it in myself to want to lie
To keep this thing from going down
Cause that girl took my heart
And I ain't want it back
No
I'm laying down my cards
Cause you said it meant nothing
And I should've kept my silence
But I guess I'm too attached
To my own pride to let you know
That all these words meant nothing
And I've always been this heartless
And we were just having sex no I would never call it love
But love
Oh no I think I'm catching feelings and I
Don't know if this is empathy I feel just
Hold on remember why you said this was the last time
Woah
So I guess it's
Let die to let live
And what's good
When both choices I've got
Have us staring down the barrel
To the bullets I can't stop
And so I stand off
Like indecisions kevlar
Till this fear of feeling stops and I'm done
But you
No I don't know how to forget you
Cause that girl took my heart
And I ain't want it back no

Thanks EDEN for another wonderful song.
@xXFr4nKyxX
eden is the most underrated musician ever
@davilopes8806
ikr
@dannidye30
He is one of them but I think Michael Thomas or abandoning Sunday are also.
@Omen0004
Not 'underrated' just under known! He should be worldwide!
@tiab8651
Yes.
@geniemiki
He gets a lot of exposure though! Have you seen how many views he racks on MrSuicideSheep's channel? Or on xKito's channel?
If he started uploading on his own channel, he would get so much more fans and money in the process^^
