I don't find this a particularly romantic song (it really doesn't fit) but I really doubt it's just about some blow up doll or rape. This all seems simply about fucking. Or better yet losing yourself in something. Escaping even. To a better realm. To heaven perhaps. You can't just focus on lyrics you have to focus on tune and rhythm as well. The entire song is very dark, slow, smooth, and melodic. It's the kinda song that makes it easy to just loose yourself in lala land.
And with the lyrics if you really read it closely you can understand why it's definitely not about rape because he's definitely asking for consent in one lyric. On the other hand in the same stanza you have him giving you these very peeping tom vibes "turn on your light" and "open the door" (things that peeping toms and creepers find very convenient for their weird escapades.) So if it's not rape but it's definitely got dubious vibes what is it?
Well could it be a blow up doll (as many of us seem to believe) I mean the lyric "inflatable girl" would lead us to believe such right? That's the kind of term you'd use for a blow up doll yeah? But remember the person he's describing is definitely capable of conscious thought and probably not plastic (as I'm pretty sure a blow up doll is incapable of turning on lights or opening doors or in general showing anything besides being plastic.) Plus such a simple answer really doesn't fit this song.
So here we are: it's not romance, not rape, and not about a blow up doll. What the heck is this song about!?
Easy, it's indulgence. It's about losing yourself. It's about escaping. It's simply about sex. It's neither romantic nor dubious, simple or complex. It just is. And it makes sense doesn't it? The entire set up of the song makes you feel like you could lose yourself. Drugs, sex, food this song is perfect for those kinda things. That's what the song is about. Can you add a romantic vibe to it? Sure! Does that mean the song is romantic? Eh...nah sorry.
tl;dr The song isn't about romance, rape, or blow up dolls it's just about escapism or better yet sex.
