I Drink Wine

I Drink Wine - Ariana Monet/Amber Adele

Lyrics by：Ariana Monet

Composed by：Ariana Monet

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 puttin' 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 tryin'

To keep climbin'

But the higher we climb feels

Like we're both none the wiser

So I hope I learn to get over myself

Stop tryin' to be somebody else

So we can love each other for free

Everybody wants somethin' you just want me

Why am I obsessin' about the things I can't control

Why am I seekin' approval from people I don't even know

In these crazy times I hope to

Find somethin' I can cling on to

'Cause I need some substance in my life

Somethin' real somethin' that feels true

You better believe for you I've

Cried

High tides

'Cause I want you so bad but you

Can't fight fire with fire oh

I hope I learn to get over myself

Stop tryin' to be somebody else

Oh I just want to love you for free

Everybody wants somethin' you just want me

Listen 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 find peace of mind

Sometimes the road less traveled is a road best left behind

I hope I learn to get over myself

Stop tryin' to be somebody else

So I just want to love you love you for free

'Cause everybody wants somethin' from me you just want me

You better believe I'm tryin'

To keep climbin'

But the higher we climb feels like we're both none the wiser
