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

Contents

The Weeknd's "Outside" paints a picture of a man seducing a woman still hung up on her past lover. He offers her an escape through intense physical intimacy, promising an experience that will make her forget her ex.

The lyrics are laden with sexual metaphors, signifying his desire to consume her and erase the memory of her past relationship. He encourages her to let go of her inhibitions and surrender to the moment.

Despite the sensual surface, there's a darkness and possessiveness lurking beneath. The Weeknd seems intent on replacing her former lover, blurring the lines between love, lust, and control.

I let you show me his moves

Let you do what he taught you

Let you reminisce how you used, to do

Girl I'm open to anything

That would get you into that zone

And understand that we're all alone

So you can slowly take off your cloth

Baby girl you know what's in store

Baby Imma stay up all night

I've been goin' hard since last night

And I'mma go harder tonight

Wish you can see you through my eyes

Ooh I'm tellin' you this ain't the same

And I know he's still in your brain

I'm 'bout to burn that shit into flames

Once I'm in you, baby

[Hook:]

Forget what you know

Make yourself at home

'Cuz baby when I'm finished with ya

You won't wanna go...

Outside

And I'mma work you like a pro, baby (why)

And, you gon' take it like one

Yeah you gon' take it like one

And I'mma give it like ya asked for it (why)

Cuz you been talkin' 'bout it

Know you been talkin' 'bout it

Ooh baby when I'm done with you (why)

Oh you ain't sayin nothin'

Yeah you ain't sayin nothin'

Ooh baby when I'm done with you (why)

Oh you ain't sayin nothin'

Yeah you ain't sayin nothin'

You gon' make me show off

All the pain that you feel you can tell

That we ain't makin no love

But I'll pretend, oh girl, I'll pretend

If you pretend, then girl I'll pretend

Let's make it seem like we're

All we need in the end

Wooooooooooo....

[Hook:]

Forget what you know

Make yourself at home

'Cuz baby when I'm finished with ya

You won't wanna go...

Outside

[x2]

Lets break it down...

Lalalalala...no no...

Go outside...

Baby go outside...

Ooooooh

Hey...oooh...
