Guys, The Weeknd is not doing so nice. Following his very public romance and shocking breakup with Selena Gomez – who then promptly received again along with Justin Bieber – the 28-year-old singer launched an emotional EP that includes a number of callous disses and references to their relationship, in addition to total songs about his other ex-girlfriend, Bella Hadid. If his 2016 album Starboy was a triumphant tribute to like and life, My Dear Melancholy is The Weeknd’s musical descent into bleak heartbreak. Ahead, learn all of the lyrics which might be being linked to Gomez.
“Call Out My Name”
- “We found each other / I helped you out of a broken place / You gave me comfort / But falling for you was my mistake.”
- “I claimed you so proud and openly / And when times were rough, when times were rough / I made sure I held you close to me.”
- “I want you to stay, even though you don’t want me / Girl, why can’t you wait? / Girl, why can’t you wait ’til I fall out of love?”
- “I said I didn’t feel nothing, baby, but I lied / I almost cut a piece of myself for your life.”
- “Guess I was just another pit stop / ‘Til you made up your mind / You just wasted my time.”
Oof. The first track off of My Dear Melancholy actually goes for the jugular, huh? The line about serving to Gomez “out of a broken place” is little question a reference to her ongoing health and mental health struggles, which she’s been public about, in addition to a nod to her rollercoaster romance with ex-boyfriend Justin Bieber. Many are additionally speculating that the road “I almost cut a piece of myself for your life,” signifies that he was prepared to donate his kidney for her transplant surgery.
“Try Me”
- “Don’t you mess with me / The way I kissed your scars / The way I fixed your heart / Don’t you mess with me, babe.”
Kissing her scars? That looks like an apparent nod to Gomez’s recent kidney transplant surgery, which left her with a literal scar on her leg.
“I Was Never There”
- “Ooh, when no one know what love is / And I know it ain’t you for sure / You’d rather something toxic / So, I poison myself again, again.”
Gomez’s unstable on-again, off-again relationship with Bieber has been extremely publicized for years. If the “toxic” shoe matches . . .
“Hurt You”
- “And now I know relationship’s my enemy / So stay away from me / I’m warning you / You try to fill the void with every man you meet.”
- “When you’re with him, you close your eyes and think of me / Just call me up again.”
Since her final break up with Bieber, Gomez was linked to musicians like Charlie Puth, Zedd, and The Weeknd. There’s completely nothing improper with relationship a number of guys (and who even is aware of which of these rumored relationships have been legit, apart from The Weeknd), however we now have a sense that is what he is referencing when he sings “You try to fill the void with every man you meet.”
“Privilege”
- “Enjoy your privileged life / ‘Cause I’m not gonna hold you through the night / We said our last goodbyes / So, let’s just try to end it with a smile.”
- “And I don’t wanna hear that you are suffering / You are suffering no more / ‘Cause I held you down when you were suffering.”
- “They said our love is just a game, I don’t care what they say / But I’ma drink the pain away, I’ll be back to my old ways.”
“I held you down when you were suffering” appears to be one other nod to how he helped Gomez through some trying times all through their courtship, whereas “They said our love is just a game” may very well be a approach to name out the individuals who speculated that they have been solely relationship for the publicity.
