The Weeknd Doesn't Want to "Sacrifice" Himself to Love or a Cult in His New Music Video
Watch The Weeknd's "Sacrifice" Music Video
January 7, 2022 by Monica Sisavat
Following the release of his Dawn FM album, The Weeknd kept the party going by dropping the music video for "Sacrifice" on Friday. A snippet of the song was previously previewed at the end of the video for "Take My Breath." In the new visual — which comes with a fair epilepsy warning — The Weeknd is seen sacrificing himself to what appears to be a cult as he sings about why he can't be in a committed relationship in the middle of a dance party.
The track begins with the 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." The Weeknd then goes on to sing, "Uh, 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 sacrificed (Sacrificed) / Your love for more of the night (Of the night) / I try to put up a fight (Up a fight) / Can't tie me down (Down)."
Check out the video for "Sacrifice" above now.
