Sleepless in the night I try to lose my faith in you Saying to myself, "You can't be the right one for me" And now that you are gone I finally get a taste of freedom Only problem is: I don't really want to be free I don't wanna be abandoned I don't want to curse your name I don't wanna feel the sadness Pretending that I'm still the same I don't want to burn your letters I don't want to face the truth I don't wanna be abandoned I don't wanna waste my youth You tried to suffocate with your pretence And I believed in this shallow romance
I ran for cover but I couldn't hide And still you tried to get me to abide You scratched me like a perfume ad Erasing all the feelings that I had And all the time you faked this loneliness Cause you wouldn't see my twisted mess I don't wanna be abandoned I don't want to curse your name I don't wanna feel the sadness Pretending that I'm still the same I don't want to burn your letters I don't want to face the truth I don't wanna be abandoned I don't wanna waste my youth
