Abandoned [Dutch translation]

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
