The meaning of the lyrics of the song "Odd Look" by the artist "Weeknd, The"

Contents

The song "Odd Look" by The Weeknd describes his lifestyle full of fleeting relationships and hedonism, and how it affects the women he meets.

The chorus speaks of a girl's indecision, who despite her doubts is attracted to his lifestyle. He lives for the moment, not thinking about the future ("When you're done, nothing will be the same"). The phrase "Yesterday I set some souls free" can be interpreted as a metaphor for the sexual liberation of women from their inner barriers.

The first verse paints a picture of The Weeknd's typical night: a random girl in a hotel room, drugs, alcohol, and sex. He admits that wherever he goes, he behaves the same way. He accuses girls of hypocrisy, claiming that they pretend to be saints, but under his influence, they reveal their "sinful" nature.

The second verse shows that The Weeknd does not believe in long-term relationships. He asks the girl if she has changed since their meeting, if she has become stronger. He admits that he brings only short-term joy into their "empty" lives, and wonders if it was worth it.

Overall, "Odd Look" is a song about the dark side of fame, a life full of temptations and emptiness, where true feelings give way to fleeting pleasures.

[Chorus:]

Your hesitation speaks to me louder than million words per minute,

I was born to this life you're livin', in this game, oh yeah!

Said, nothing will ever be, ever be the same, when you're finished,

I freed a couple of souls just yesterday, oh yeah!

[Verse 1:]

I had a good girl in my room, no tats on her skin,

I put work all in her purse, she got guilt all in her grin,

And I swear it be the same, every fuckin' where that I've been.

All you girls try to be saints, I'll make you roll with a sinner,

You can come to my hotel, you can bring me a friend,

You can dress up like twins, I can teach you some French,

Paper planes full of kush, a couple cups full of gin,

Don't know what city I'm in, wake up and do it again.

And if you know me well, I don't like to talk,

But when I make a move, you know it's loud as fuck,

And if you wanna scream, get loud as fuck, baby,

I can tell your friend, I'm good at the instruction,

A little bit, a little bit... Ooh yeah! Ooh, Lord!

[Chorus]

[Verse 2:]

Do you feel like you'll come back around?

Does it make you strong?

Do you feel like you can take the planet on? Oh, girl!

Did I seem to give you a little bit more love

To your lonely life, to your empty life,

Little life, little lie, oh yeah!

Do you feel like you got your money's worth?

‘Cause if you did this round's on me

Just promise that you'll come back to me.

Feed me, baby, feed me, baby!

[Chorus]
