Can’t Feel My Face Lyrics

Artist: The Weeknd

"The Weeknd's "Can't Feel My Face" is a multifaceted track that delves into themes of intooxicating love, addiction, and the complexities associated with them. At first glance, the song appears to celebrate the euphoric aspects of love, but a deeper look reveals a metaphorical exploration of drug addiction. The catchy chorus and upbeat tempo mask a darker narrative of dependency annd the highs and lows that come with it. The song was a collaborative effort, co-wsritten by The Weeknd, Savan Kotecha, Peter Svensson, Max Martin, and Ali Payami, and it almost didn't make the cut for "Beauty Behind the Madness." Its creation was described as very natural, taking only about 40 minutes. The phrase "I can't feel my face," commonly associated with cocaine use, provides a direct link to the song's underlying themes of drug use and its impact. "Can't Feel My Face" achieved global success, resonating with audiences worldwide and receiving critical acclaim from major music publications. It topped charts in nearly 15 countries, including the Billboard Hot 100, and was recognized as one of the best songs of 2015, further cementing The Weeknd's status in the music industry. The song's music video, directed by Grant Singer, adds another layer to its interpretation, featuring The Weeknd performing to an unimpressed audience until a transformative moment of ignition, symbolizing perhaps the internal battle and the external perceptions of his struggles. While the lyrics can be interpreted as describing a destructive love affair, they simultaneously address the gripping nature of addiction, whether to a person or a substance. The Weeknd's mastery lies in his ability to craft a song that on the surface functions as a pop hit but beneath reveals a poignant story of love, loss, and the pursuit of ephemeral highs.

Can’t Feel My Face Lyrics

Can’t Feel My Face by The Weeknd

[Verse 1]
And I know she'll be the death of me
At least we'll both be numb
And she'll always get the best of me
The worst is yet to come
But at least we'll both be beautiful
And stay forever young
This I know, uh
This I know

[Pre-Chorus]
She told me, "Don't worry
About it"
She told me, "Don't worry
No more"
We both know we can't go
Without it
She told me, "You'll never
Be alo-oh-oh-ooh"

[Chorus]
I can't feel my face when I'm with you
But I love it
But I love it, oh
I can't feel my face when I'm with you
But I love it
But I love it, oh

[Verse 2]
And I know she'll be the death of me
At least we'll both be numb
And she'll always get the best of me
The worst is yet to come
All the misery was necessary
When we're deep in love
This I know, this I know (Girl)
Girl, I know, uh

[Pre-Chorus]
She told me, "Don't worry
About it"
She told me, "Don't worry
No more"
We both know we can't go
Without it
She told me, "You'll never
Be alo-oh-oh-ooh"

[Chorus]
I can't feel my face when I'm with you
But I love it
But I love it, oh
I can't feel my face when I'm with
You (I can't feel my face)
But I love it (But I love it)
But I love it (I can't feel my face) oh
I can't feel my face when I'm with you (When I'm with you)
But I love it (But I love it, yeah)
But I love it (But I love it,) oh
(I can't feel my face) I can't feel my face when I'm with (When I'm with you) you
But I love it (But I love it)
But I love it (Girl, I love it,) oh
[Bridge]
Oh
Oh-oh
Ooh-ooh

[Pre-Chorus]
She told me, "Don't worry
About it"
She told me, "Don't worry
No more"
We both know we can't go (Can't go)
Without it
She told me, "You'll never
Be alo-oh-oh-
Ooh"

[Chorus]
I can't feel my face when I'm with you (I can't feel my face, girl)
But I love it (But I love it, yeah)
But I love it (Oh, I love it, yeah) oh
I can't feel my face when I'm with
You (Said, I can't feel my face)
But I love it (But I love it)
But I love it (Girl, I love it,) oh
(I can't feel my face) I can't feel my face when I'm with
(When I'm with you) you
But I love it (Know I love it, girl)
But I love it (Don't you think I do?) Oh
(I can't feel my face) I can't feel my face when I'm with
(When I'm with you) you (I can't feel my face, girl)
But I love it (When I'm with you, baby)
But I love it (Said, when I'm with you, baby,) oh
I can't feel my fa-
[Outro]
Uh
Hey!
