[STÜDD_Music]

The way it just ends abruptly is hurting my feelings

[Donnie_Narco]

Real fans been waiting like 4 years for this song.

[Tre_Notes]

“YOU KNOW MY HEART BELONGS TO Y-“

Just when it was getting to the best part 😭😭

[samthin-]

this is nothing but The Weeknd cinematic universe. a perfect story all tied down to the fears of a little boy. XO

[Missy.wannaCry]

Headphones aren't enough, i need Abel singing on my face!😭😭

[abeltesfaye_]

I've been saying it for 13 years: Abel Tesfaye is one of, "The Greats" and is a living legend. I'm going to miss "The Weeknd" but I understand why he's dropping the character and I respect it ❤ Can't wait for the final chapter in this New Trilogy!!! ✨️💜 XOTWOD

0:20 "I dont like the view from halfway down" He watches Bojack Horseman???? Omg.

[darkms]

Lyrics:
The beginning (0:14)
I tried my best to not let you go
I don't like the view from halfway down
Just promise me that it won't be so
Will I feel the end backed up the ground?

I tried to be something that I'll never be
Why waste another precious hour?
Why waste another precious hour?
I'd rather leave somewhat of a legacy
Familiar, a thought that's so familiar

Start before the drop (1:08)
Lеt me close my eyеs with denial
Let's end it all, the world's not far behind
So what's the point of sleep?
It's going up in flames, oh, no
Except now, ooh
♪
Doom (2:03)
Just hold my heart, real close to you
Remember how it always beats for you
I'M FALLING OUT THE SPEED OF LIGHT
I'm Staring At Your Shrinking Face, Don't Cry
YOU KNOW MY H E A R T BELONGS TO YOU

"THE KNOWING" (holing heart cliff/abyss) + "Snowchild" (The Weeknd's Story) = "Hold Your Heart" / "Afterlife"! XO

[YaBoiiG]

When the melody changed at 1:50 I immediately knew it was hold your heart it caught me by surprise 🔥

[frikynikkid]

I bet all the Seasonal depression will fade away when The Weekend releases the new Album.

[xaviersaikaley]

Abel trying to give his fans a seizure without warning in the first three seconds of the video 💀

[PikminMaster]

After the Dawn, Abel...

hopefully drops this album soon.

[notfex]

Whatever Abel is cooking, we better bring some popcorn. I have a feeling we're gonna be listening to a movie.

[LoveJenn_n]

Whatever Abel releases, we will always support his work. XO.

[hansolo.]

Every Weeknd project is pure artistry 💯

[dybixs]

1:30 Notice the synths/tones. Those are callbacks to the same synths used on the After Hours Title Reveal/ Faith

This is going to be a MASTERPIECE

[alexia]

I feel his inspiration for the creation of this album is coming from his deep childhood trauma and the realization of the true essence of who he really is as a person. I can't wait to hear it because it's gonna be deep and emotional 🎭🎶💎

[ttaywcool]

1 beautiful voice 2. Hate how it just ends when it goes to the beat with the angelic voice and heavenly vibes 3. Can't wait for more music
