False Alarm
the weeknd Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Bathroom stalls for the powder nose (she loves)
High heel shoes with the open toes (she loves)
She's got a good time wrapped in gold (she loves)
For you, for you
All red dress with the devil eyes (she loves)
So obsessed with the camera lights (she loves)
You love her, but you can't deny (she loves)
The truth, the truth

She loves everybody
Can't you tell by the signs?
She loves everybody
She gets off all the time
It's a dark philosophy
And it haunts her constantly
It's a false alarm to me
She's a false alarm

False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Alarm
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Six inch long, 'bout three inch wide (she loves)
Dolla, dolla bill is her only type (she loves)
You love her but you'll never be (she loves)
The one, the one
Diamonds and the rings are her fantasy (she loves)
She chase hearts with the Hennessy (she loves)
You love her, but you'll never be (she loves)
Enough, enough

She loves everybody (oh)
Can't you tell by the signs?
She loves everybody (oh)
She gets off all the time
It's a dark philosophy (dark philosophy)
And it haunts her constantly (haunts her constantly)
She's a false alarm to me (false alarm)
She's a false alarm

False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Alarm
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

She always leaves the man she loves
But the diamonds are forever
She always seems to be alone
But the diamonds make it better

False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Alarm
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, ooh)




False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, ooh)
False alarm (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, ooh)

Overall Meaning

False Alarm by The Weeknd is a song that discusses the lifestyle of a woman, who is a party animal and enjoys living life to the fullest, without a care in the world. The lyrics describe various things that she loves, including "bathroom stalls for the powder nose," "high heel shoes with the open toes," "all red dress with the devil eyes," and "diamonds and the rings are her fantasy." The woman in question loves everybody, and she gets off all the time. She is obsessed with the camera lights, and the men who love her can't deny that she is a force to be reckoned with. However, even though she seems to be in control of her life, she is haunted by a dark philosophy that she can't escape. The Weeknd's message, therefore, is that the woman in question is a "false alarm" and that she is not as happy as she pretends to be.
