Verse 1
How can oGne become so bounded by cD/F#hoices that somebody elsEme makes?
How come we’ve bAmoth become a version of a peGrson we don’t even liD/F#ke?
We’re in lGove with the wDorld, but the world just wants to bring usEm down
By putting idAmeas in our heads that corGrupt our hearts somehD/F#ow
WGhen I was a child, every sDingle thing could blow myEm mind
Soaking it Amall up for fun, but noGw I only soak up wD/F#ine
They say to pGlay hard, you work hard, find bDalance in the sacEmrifice
And yet I don’t kAmnow anybody who’s trGuly satisfD/F#ied
Refrain
You better believe I’m tGrying (TryiB7ng, trying)
To keep cEmlimbing (Climbing, climDbing)
But the hiAmgher we climb feels like we’re both none the wDiser
Chorus 1
So I hope I leGarn to get oDver myEmself
Stop trying to Ambe soGmebody elDse
So we can loGve each oDther for fEmree
Everybody wants soAmmething, yoGu just want mDe
Verse 2
GWhy am I obsessing abDout the things I can’t coEmntrol?
Why am I seAmeking approval from peGople I don’t even knDow?
In these crGazy times, I hope to find Dsomething I can cling onEmto
‘Cause I need some suAmbstance in my life, something rGeal, something that feels tDrue
Pre-Chorus
You better believe for yGou, I’ve criB7ed (I’ve cried, I’ve cried)
High tEmidesD (High tides, high tides)
‘Cause I wAmant you so bad, but you can’t fight fire with fiDre, oh
Chorus 2
So I hope I leGarn to get oDver myEmself
Stop trying to Ambe soGmebody elDse
So we can loGve each oDther for fEmree
Cause everybody wants soAmmething, yoGu just want mDe
Bridge
Listen, I kGnow how low I can go, DI give as good as EmI get
YAmou get the brunt of it alGl ’cause you’re all I’ve got leDft
Oh, I hGope in time (Hope in time)
We bDoth will find peace of mind (We both find)
Sometimes, the rAmoad less travelled is a rGoad best left beDhind
Chorus 3
Oh, I hope I leGarn to get oDver myEmself
