Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But you know what you're here for
Close your eyes, lay yourself beside me
Hold tight for this ride
We don't need no protection
Come alone, we don't need attention
Open your hand, take a glass
Even though, you don't roll
Trust me girl, you wanna be high for this
Take it off, you want it off
'Cause I know what you're feeling
It's okay, girl, I feel it too
Let it be, baby breathe
I swear I'm right here
We'll be good, I promise, we'll be so good
Open your hand, take a glass
Don't be scared, I'm right here
Even though, you don't roll
Trust me girl, you wanna be high for this
You wanna be high for this
You wanna be high for this
You wanna be high for this
You wanna be high for this
The lyrics of The Weeknd's song "High For This" talks about the experience of taking drugs specifically to enhance a sexual experience. The song encourages listeners to close their eyes and lay themselves beside the singer, implying that they are about to enter into a sensual encounter. The line "we don't need no protection" suggests that the encounter will be unprotected, adding an element of danger to the experience. The song further says that there's no need for attention, which encourages the listener to keep the encounter private, as it's something that's only meant for them.
The lyrics go on to say that the listener doesn't have to worry about anything, that the singer is there to take care of them, and there's no need to be scared, as he promises to make everything all right. The song tells the listener to take a glass and relax, to let go and not be afraid to be vulnerable. The lyrics communicate that there's trust between the singer and the listener and that they're embarking on an experience neither will ever forget.

My favorite part of the song is when The Weeknd is like
You don't know what's in store
But you know what you're here for

Come alone

Open your hand
Take a glass
Don't be scared

It's okay girl I feel it too
Let it beat baby breathe
I swear I'm right here
We'll be good; I promise
We'll be so good
Open your hand
Take a glass
