The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Gone" by the artist "Weeknd, The"

Contents

In the song "Gone," The Weeknd depicts a state of intense intoxication and its impact on the perception of reality and his relationship with a woman. The lyrical hero is at a party, consuming alcohol and drugs ("sip it, open it up, drink it, and spill it", "got so much smoke in my lungs", "I'm high off codeine, promethazine, and weed").

He addresses a woman, inviting her to join him in this state ("touch yourself", "you gotta feel it", "drink until I taste it"). The hero is enjoying the moment without thinking about the consequences ("live fast, fuck slow", "wicked life forever"). He is so intoxicated that he loses control over himself ("it's got me gone", "I can't feel anything below my neck").

The lyrics contain a motif of alienation and loneliness, despite the apparent freedom. The hero admits that he feels "kind of sick" and "it's hard to breathe," and his words "hope I make it home" sound like a desperate attempt to cling to reality.

I got you,

I got a hold of you,

Said, you want to see

How we roll.

Well, take a seat, take a seat

And we'll just

Drink it, drop it, drink it, spill it.

Baby, touch your body, body,

You gotta, taste it, feel it, rub it on me, baby.

Don't you worry? You gotta keep up

‘Cause I been gone, I been gone, I been gone, I been gone.

Girl,

Why don't you fuck what you heard, baby?

‘Cause I been gone,

You can see for yourself, lady,

Girl, I lit you somethin',

Somethin' somethin', for you,

You would love to pass around.

Oh well, just drink it, drop it, drink, it spill it,

Baby, touch your body, body,

You gotta, taste it, feel it, rub it on me, baby.

Don't you worry? Don't you worry? You gotta keep up

‘Cause I'm gone

I've been gone, I've been gone, I've been gone,

I've been gone, I've been gone,

I've been gone, I've been gone, I've been gone.

I hope I make it home,

You'll be thinkin' of it.

I got the whole city on my side, tonight, tonight,

Watch us rock it out,

Watch us leave it, girl,

After the show is done,

You can take, take me to yours.

But my lungs so muddy,

I love the way you taste,

Drink it ‘til I'm ugly, baby,

Fuck me while I'm faded,

Feel that through my veins.

Baby girl, I gotcha,

I'm only twenty-one so I do it when I wanna,

Gone from the codeine, ‘methazine, weed,

Got me feelin' kinda weak,

And it's kinda hard to breathe,

But you're turnin' twenty-three, so I'll fuck you if you need

In your birthday suit,

I'ma give you what you need.

But I ain't takin' off my black boots,

I'm fallin'

‘Cause I'm numb from the neck down,

I'm sorry.

You won't know that I can't feel it,

I can win a fuckin' Oscar

By the way I fuckin' did it,

And you won't ever fuckin' know

‘Cause I won't ever fuckin' show it

Except when I be wheezy from that other cup of potion.

Dirty Spite toastin'.

Fast live, fuck slow!

Low life for life!

Let the meds flow,

Let the night flow,

I'm so gone,

Let these meds flow,

I'm so gone,

Let these meds flow,

I'm so gone,

I'm so gone,

Said, I'm gone, gone, gone.

I'm so gone,

Gone.
