Perfect Sex
Pink Turns Blue Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The calmness of surroundings
Conceal a haunted place
Don't wanna stay here
Just tension I guess

Some tombs
Are better left alone
Self-abuse
Lack of identity
I'm not sure
Whether I'm guilty or not
Never do enter
It ends with a heavy recall

Perfect Sex
Prevented from seeing the obvious
In a lateral drift
Live with it for a while
That's the way it keeps happening

Be a good slave
Watch me come
I am here
That's not always the way
Madness there
Nothing left to stand
An itching to move
Until it all gives away

Perfect Sex
Nothing wrong with that
A process of breaking away
Can't seem to care
But now all hell breaks loose

Your beauty
Center of it all
I am lonely
And ruins all around
Keep passing
Unseen through your moments




Hear and feel
The real universe

Overall Meaning

In the song "Perfect Sex" by Pink Turns Blue, the lyrics discuss feelings of unease and discomfort in one's surroundings. The calmness of the environment hides a haunted place, and the tension in the air is palpable. The singer is unsure whether they are guilty of something or not, but regardless, they feel like they shouldn't stay in this place. They mention self-abuse and a lack of identity, hinting at possible underlying issues contributing to their discomfort.


The title of the song, "Perfect Sex," seems contradictory to the dark and unsettling tone of the lyrics. It could be interpreted as the idea of a perfect sexual encounter is unattainable or unrealistic, leading to dissatisfaction and frustration. The concept of being prevented from seeing the obvious and living with a lateral drift speaks to a type of blindness or complacency in one's life, possibly causing them to overlook red flags and ignore their intuition. The song concludes by acknowledging the beauty around them but feeling lonely and surrounded by ruins, suggesting that the singer may feel disconnected from the world and struggling to find their place.


Overall, "Perfect Sex" is a lyrically complex and introspective song that explores themes of discomfort, identity, and disconnection. The lyrics suggest a sense of restlessness and lack of fulfillment, while the title adds an ironic twist to the overall message of the song.
