I drink Wine - Acoustic Version

How can one become so bounded
By choices that somebody else makes?
How come we've both become a version
Of a person we don't even like?
We're in love with the world
But the world
Just wants to bring us down
By putting ideas in our heads
That corrupt our hearts somehow
When I was a child
Every single thing could blow my mind
Soaking it all up for fun
But now I only soak up wine
They say to play hard, you work hard
Find balance in the sacrifice
Yet I don't know anybody
Who's truly satisfied
You better believe I'm trying
To keep climbing
But the higher we climb
Feels like we're both none wiser
So I hope I learn to get over myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
So we can love each other for free
Everybody wants something
You just want me
Why am I obsessing
About the things I can't control?
Why am I seeking approval
People I don't even know?
In these crazy times I hope to find
Something I can cling on to
Cause I need some substance in my life
Something real, something that feels true
Better believe for you I've cried
High tides cause I want you so bad
But you can't fight fire with fire
I hope I learn to get over myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
I just want to love you
Love you
Love you for free
Everybody wants something from me
You just want me
I know how low I can go
I give as good as I get
You get the brunt of it all
Cause you're all I've got left
Oh, I hope in time
We both will find peace of mind
Sometimes the road less traveled
Is a road best left behind
I hope I learn to get over myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
Cause I want to love you
Love you for free, yeah
Everybody wants something from me
You just want me
You better believe I'm trying
To keep climbing
But the higher we climb
Feels like we're both none wiser
So I hope I learn to get over myself
Stop trying to be somebody else
Oh I just want to love you
Love you, Love you for free,yeah
Everybody wants something from me
You just want me
