“Whiskey, Sex, & Heartbreak” is a pop/R&B track about the mental turmoil & self-destructive patterns that plague people following a breakup. The euphoric & delusional chorus notably contrasts that of the verses. Gio describes the song as “A beautiful contradiction.”
Lyrically the song expresses the freedom one can feel as well as the helplessness in heartbreak. Heartbreak is an ongoing theme in popular music. However, a concept that is seldom explored is that a lot of our romantic relationships operate on behavioral patterns that were formed in our early formative years.
Gio expresses that he wants to shed light on this fact. When asked about the inception of the song he replied, “The hardest thing to do is look in the mirror especially when it feels like the world is picking at your scabs. People lie, actions can deceive, but patterns never lie.” It can often hurt to say the words out loud to ourselves. To admit to that a person can’t love you in the way that you deserve.
