    "Wishful Drinking" Lyrics:
    Separate me from the rest of the herd so
    I can run away from all of my hurt, oh
    Drink what I want
    Be what I want
    Say what you want me to say, like
    I can pretend that I don't want to end I'm afraid
    (I'm dangerous)
    Weave a story so I don't have to talk, no
    It's not a problem if I never get caught, oh
    Drink what I want
    Be what I want
    Say what you want me to say, like
    I can pretend that I don't want to end I'm afraid
    (I'm dangerous)
    Oh, wishful drinking
    Tell myself that I'm not thinking 'bout
    How I could drown, drown, drown, drown
    Wishful drinking now
    (Hey)
    Wishful drinking
    Go ahead and stop your thinking now
    And throw it down, down, down, down
    Wishful drinking now
    (Ahhh)
    Hide your demons where no one can see 'em
    Out of sight but in your mind you believe them
    Drink what you want
    Be what you want
    Say what they want you to say, like
    I can pretend that I don't want to end I'm afraid
    (Ahhh)
    Do you think, do you think that they notice?
    I keep a bottle by my bed, it's the focus
    Drink what I want
    Be what I want
    Say what they want you to say, like
    I can pretend that I don't want to end I'm afraid
    (I'm dangerous)
    Oh, wishful drinking
    Tell myself that I'm not thinking 'bout
    How I could drown, drown, drown, drown
    Wishful drinking now
    Wishful drinking
    Go ahead and stop your thinking now
    And throw it down, down, down, down
    Wishful drinking now
    This is not a problem if I don't want it to stop
    Can't call it a problem if I never let a plate drop
    This is not a problem if convincing that it's not
    Don't call it a problem, it's the only thing that I still got
    Hey, oh, hey, oh no
    Down, down, down,
    Wishful drinking now
    Oh, wishful drinking
    Tell myself that I'm not thinking 'bout
    How I could drown, drown, drown, drown
    Wishful drinking now
    Wishful drinking
    Go ahead and stop your thinking now
    And throw it down, down, down, down
    Wishful drinking now

    GIRL. What a song. I went through a whole thing-and-a-half around a year back after my bf died, with some really fun addiction thrown in, and let me tell you - I don't know if I've ever found a song that so perfectly sums up the whole thing. Particularly that slightly-superior "look at me, I'm falling apart and they don't even know" vibe that this song hits so hard. Ugh. The vague, but never fully confronted suicidal ideation of "I can pretend that I don't want to end/I'm afraid.". Honestly. Who even are you. So good.
    Its also wild to me that I've been watching your videos since, jesus, like 2011? And even into my early 20s now, you're still making content that just hits home so hard. Haze, On My Own, Interlude III, and Wishful Drinking could all bookend chapters in my life.
