Perfect Life is a diary entry indie pop track about the messy, unfiltered aftermath of heartbreak. Blending raw emotion with a slightly tongue-in-cheek edge, it captures the thoughts you're not supposed to say out loud, pairing honest storytelling with subtle indie guitar textures and a more alt-leaning sound.
It was recorded, produced and mastered at a studio between Bunbury and Busselton.
