The Weeknd - Sacrifice Lyrics









I was born in a city
Where the winter nights don't ever sleep
So this life's always with me
The ice inside my veins will never bleed

Every time you try to fix me
I know you'll never find that missing piece
When you cry and say you miss me
I lie and tell you that I'll never leave

But I sacrifice
Your love for more of the night
I try to put up a fight
Can't tie me down

I don't want to sacrifice
For your love
I try
I don't want to sacrifice
But I love my time

I hold you through the toughest parts when you feel like it's the end
'Cause life is still worth living
'Cause life is still worth living
I can break you down and pick you up
And fuck like we are friends
But don't be catching feelings
Don't be out here catching feelings

'Cause I sacrifice
Your love for more of the night
I try to put up a fight
Can't tie me down

I don't want to sacrifice
For your love
I try
I don't want to sacrifice
But I love my time

I don't want to sacrifice
For your love
I try
I don't want to sacrifice
But I love my time

Oh, baby
I hope you know that I, I tried
Oh, baby
I hope you know I love my time

I don't want to sacrifice
I don't want to
I try
I don't want to sacrifice
But I love my time

  15. A.... L....

    @P. Cookie this whole album at nighttime takes your soul!

  16. P.... Z....

    Day by day, this album will get over people’s head and, everyone is absolutely going to be possessed by this album.

  17. B.... ....

    @Germ deep down u know it slaps

  18. G.... ....

    Its ok

  19. N.... ....

    Best song on the album. MJ inspired, heavy on the 80s synths but still has a modern sound to it.

  20. S.... ....

    Right! I'm living for it! ^_^!

  21. S.... ....

    @Soggycips Comedy I thought this was one of the least appealing ones on the album tbh

  22. S.... C....

    The best album, but I think the other songs are meh

  23. S.... ....

    Yeah this sounds like thriller..

  24. b.... ....

    The Micheal Jackson thriller vibes this is giving. Just out of this world Abel, you’ve outdone yourself once again. I can never thank you enough

  25. A.... P....

    @Max Bolton they should listen to them. I’m 47 and I agree with anyone who compares the sounds of this album to any of those bands in the 80’s.

  26. h.... ....

    It does, esp the beginning. ru-clip.com/video/sOnqjkJTMaA/видео.html

  27. M.... B....

    @ThatBoyRuut 21 90% of the kids in this comment section don't know those bands lol

  28. Y.... ....

    *ITS ME THRILLLAAAAAAAAA NIIIIIGHT!* 🌙✨🕺🏽🌌

  29. Y.... O....

    This is a masterful album, Abel is pushing the boundaries of contemporary music by modernizing the 80's sound, Dawn FM's concept is a 80's radio station, yet the album's thematic narrative is layered, it sounds like it's all about romance and toxic relationships, but I feel as if it's a satire of the musical industry as well as an existentialist reflection. The music videos and the performances will give Dawn FM much more depth and meaning.

  30. T.... X....

    @Chris Radden Jr Have you heard Wanderlust and Odd Look Remix? They're way older than Tory's album.

  31. R.... A....

    He makes me wanna play GTA Vice City all over again 😂😭

  32. Y.... ....

    *ITS ME THRILLLAAAAAAAAA NIIIIIGHT!* 🌙✨🕺🏽🌌

  33. C.... R....

    But you cant cap tho tory lanez did it first

  34. H.... ....

    This just SCREAMS Quincy Jones and Max Martin. So many people won't even know how much those two changed the game of music together with Michael Jackson. And this song reminded me so much of MJ, I can't explain it but it's a certain vibe that comes from within. Straight up GOOSEBUMPS

  35. T.... F....

    @Ariel Gonzalez how do you know that it's 'mostly' ?

  36. A.... G....

    well mostly made by swedish house mafia... plus max martin

  37. M.... D....

    There's an apparent Quincy Jones part in the album itself

  38. T.... F....

    well Max Martin worked on almost all this album so it SHOULD sound like him haha

  39. J.... L....

    I just love how The Weekend is bringing back the 80s vibe into his whole album.

  40. C.... A....

    Definitely gives out Michael Jackson vibes, the 80s synths and the upbeat drums makes you wanna dance. Bless Abel for giving us an album to cope during the pandemic 💯

  41. G.... ....

    Bro that's what I was thinking when I first heard this song

  42. J.... G....

    that electric guitar at the start that you hear throughout the whole song gives big thriller vibes

  43. r.... b....

    is it just me, or does this sound like “wanna be startin something” by michael jackson???

  44. R.... ....

    Can you guys not compare The Weeknd and Michael Jackson? both are legends but they also don't deserve to be compared or saying that The Weeknd is replacing MJ. Both are amazing music artists in their own way

  45. m.... ....

    Track produced by Swedish House Mafia, with The Weekend as vocalist.. really speaks for itself.. masterpiece

  46. A.... G....

    @chappy i know who they are, but this beat was mostly made by swedish house mafia. max added the chords

  47. c.... ....

    @Ariel Gonzalez Put some respect on Max Martin and Oscar Holter who also produced/write this + other songs on the album and a lot of the songs on After Hours including Blinding Lights, Save Your Tears & In Your Eyes.

  48. A.... G....

    @Manuel Ivan Villa Martinez yep. they made the track (beat) and sent it to abel hoping for the best (as axwell said inan interview..). well, the rest is history

  49. M.... I....

    was it really the swedish house mafia guys?

  50. D.... N....

    This project is psychedelic, eponymous and has a retro consistency. It has a sonic delineation immitative of daytime and nighttime radio. The promotional arts and videos are visual testament to the depth of creativity that went into making this album. I love Abel and I guess you could say I’m blinded by the lights of my bias (no pun intended).

    Dawn FM takes you to a purgatory. A matrix, if you will. This album is a reminder of the hold radio programming once had on music. He took a risk in the first sonic half of the album with the almost repetitive intrumentation but Abel being Abel, it was magic after magic track after track.

    No better way to start off the dawn of the year than with Dawn FM.

  51. R.... L....

    ru-clip.com/video/Eg6SAVbMo_Y/видео.html

  52. D.... ....

    no clue what you mean, but I agree :)

  53. C.... A....

    Hell yeah man!! This album rocks 🎸🎸

  54. e.... ....

    Wtf are you even on about LoL

  55. H.... ....

    Inspiration of Michael Jackson 100 percent. This song gets me in the mood to just get up and dance. Really good song and will be stuck in my head for weeks

  56. L.... 0....

    Essa música é muito maravilhosa.Lembra muito Thriller do lendário Michael Jackson. 💙 The Weeknd nunca erra !

  57. l.... ....

    Ahhaa weeknd is back with his bangers can't wait to see this album on top charts

  58. R.... L....

    @Shaquille Knights ru-clip.com/video/1A6QpmS2r_I/видео.html

  59. S.... K....

    Gonna wait al while then. This is hands down his worst project if anyone disagrees name another. Is there someone else and sacrifice are the best songs on it other than that, no.

  60. R.... L....

  61. L.... U....

    Having a #1 album doesn’t make it a great album. This album was average

  62. s.... ....

    Thriller vibes. Good stuff. Keep up the 80s theme, love it.

  63. P.... Z....

    Mais um hit, The Weeknd sempre fazendo sucesso aqui no BRASIL 🇧🇷!!!

  64. J.... C....

    Esse cara é FODAAAA!!! 😍😍😍

  65. M.... ....

    Literalmente valió la pena esperar este álbum.

  66. l.... ....

    I love how he always find a way to ad some type of Daft Punk beats/vibez to his songs.

  67. D.... D....

    @Roses Same here ! It’s like guy Manuel and Thomas made this from the discovery album

  68. R.... ....

    I know right when I heard this song for the first time the first thing that popped into my head was Daft Punk,sad they aren't making music anymore but are still amazing

  69. G.... /....

    It's a collab with Swedish House Mafia (credited for producers)

    So this life is always with me
    The ice inside my veins will never bleed
    Every time you try to fix me
    I know you'll never find that missing piece
    When you cry and say you miss me
    I lie and tell you that I'll never leave
    But

    I sacrifice
    Your love for more of the night
    I try to put up a fight
    Can't tie me down
    I don't want to sacrifice
    For your love
    I try
    I don't want to sacrifice

    I hold you through the toughest parts
    Whеn you feel like it's the end

    Oh baby
    I hope you know that I tried
    Oh baby
    I hope you know I love

    Production quality is through the roof with this one 😍🔥 the amazing mastermind of Swedish House Mafia is the one to thank to. You can definitely hear Daft Funk's major influence on SHM and The Weeknd. Definitely shouldn't forget Max Martin as well.

  76. L.... P....

    I can't wait to repeat DAWN FM over and over again, this might be his best album so far. The transitions, the cohesiveness and the commitment to that vaporwave synth sound is incredible. Also, this song is going to be a certified chart smasher. Thank you Abel ❤

  77. N.... m....

    I love how The Weeknd makes the 80s music good at 2022.

  78. A.... J....

  87. S.... F....

    No se que canción es mi favorita de todo el álbum. Esta demasiado increíble y todavía no lo termino✨

  88. A.... S....
