A final eulogy to the moniker that is The Weeknd, the closing track and title of the entire album, Hurry Up Tomorrow sees The Weeknd repent his sins in this Peter Gabriel-esque instrumental and facing the afterlife before transforming into Abel.
[Verse 1]
Wash me with your fire
Who else has to pay for my sins?
My love's fabricated, it's too late to save it
Now I'm ready for the end
So burn me with your light
I have no more fights left to win
Tie me up to face it, I can't run away, and
I'll accept that it's the end
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hope that I find what I'm looking for
I hope someone's watching from up above
I'm done with the lies, I'm done with the loss
I hope my confession is enough
[Chorus]
So I see Heaven after life
I want Heaven when I die
I wanna change
I want the pain no more, hey
[Verse 2]
I took so much more than their lives
They took a piece of me
And I've been tryin' to fill that void that my father left
So no one else abandons me, I'm sorry
I promise I'm sorry, yeah
But now I'm drownin' in the same tub where I learned how to swim
With my mother trying to save every ounce of my innocence
I failed her like I failed myself, I'm sorry (Yeah)
Mama, I'm sorry, oh, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
And I hope that I'll find what I'm looking for
I hope that He's watching from up above
I'm done with the lies, I'm done with the loss
I hope this confession is enough
[Chorus]
So I see Heaven after life
I want Heaven when I die
I want to change
I want the pain no more, oh, yeah
No, I need Heaven after life
I want Heaven when I die
I wanna change
I want the pain no more, no more, no more
