“Abandoned” – Alexander Rybak

From the “Fairytales” album, released in 2009.

Music by Alexander Rybak and Kirill Moltchanov
Lyrics by Alexander Rybak and Piotr Andrej

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 try to suffocate with your pretends
And I believed in the shallow romance
I ran for cover but I couldn’t hide
And still you try to get me to abide

You scratched me like a perfume and
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 want to feel the sadness
Pretending that I’m still the same
I don’t want to burn you letters
I don’t want to face the truth
I don’t wanna be abandoned
I don’t wanna waste my youth
