Sunset Blvd – benny blanco

You’re my cherry pie

I don’t care who knows it

Love me till I die

Bury me with roses

I know you’re awfully shy

But I can’t wait to hold it, to hold that

Big, big, hard heart!

With open arms

Holding you, naked

Middle of Sunset

Boulevard

Making you famous

Everyone’s watching

Bare skin, concrete

They’re calling the police

Open arms

Holding you, naked

Middle of Sunset

Feels so good, it hurts

But you fill up what’s broken

Woman of few words

But for you, I keep my mouth wide open

Praying and hoping

That you quench my thirst

Not just dip your toes in, I want that

Big (big), big (big), hard (hard) heart!

With open arms

Holding you, naked

Middle of Sunset

Boulevard

Making you famous

Everyone’s watching

Bare skin, concrete

They’re calling the police

Open arms

Holding you, naked

Middle of Sunset

I just wanna touch it, touch it

Try your hardest not to bust it

Gimme, gimme, love it, love it

Hey, hey, hey

I just wanna touch it, touch it

Try your hardest not to bust it

Gimme, gimme, how I love your

Big, big heart!

With open arms

Holding you, naked

Middle of Sunset

Boulevard

Making you famous

Everyone’s watching

Bare skin, concrete

They’re calling the police

Open arms

Holding you, naked

Middle of Sunset

Unpacking the Passion of “Sunset Blvd”

With “Sunset Blvd,” benny blanco crafts a vivid, emotionally charged narrative centered around raw vulnerability and uninhibited affection.

The recurring scene—holding a lover, “naked, middle of Sunset Boulevard”—symbolizes fearlessness and authenticity, where love is unashamedly put on display. Lines about longing for a “big, big, hard heart” hint at a desire for both emotional depth and unguarded passion, weaving together themes of tenderness and unfiltered desire. The song balances cheeky humor with sincerity, making the listener feel both the euphoria and the nerve-wracking exposure of love that’s impossible to hide.
