[Verse 1]
Picking up on the signs, I know the line
You're thinking 'bout that other life, you live a lie
Did no one tell you that the grass ain't greener?
L.A. ain't sweeter
It's just full of dreamers

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I just wanted to make your dreams a reality
But I don't wanna waste my time (I don't wanna waste my time)
'Cause you are taking liberties
You're sucking all my energy
It's making me ill now
But I still feel bad

[Chorus]
You and I were meant to be
So why you'd make me so low, baby?
Take time, take all the time in the world
Why'd you leave me so low, baby?

[Verse 2]
Are you picking up on the signs?
They are not fine
I bet you're just living your best life
Eating on those garlic fries
They were nice, we went there twice
Oh, what a bougie life
And they were so overpriced
Twice
[Pre-Chorus 2]
But I just wanted to make your dreams a reality
But I'm not wasting my time (My time, my time)
'Cause you are taking liberties
You're sucking all my energy
You're making me ill now
But I still feel bad

[Chorus]
You and I were meant to be
So why you'd make me so low, baby?
Take time, take all the time in the world
Why'd you leave so low, baby?

[Bridge: (Spoken)]
Picking up on the signs, I know the line
You're thinking 'bout that other life, you live a lie
Oh, did no one tell you that the grass ain't greener?
L.A. ain't sweeter
It's just full of dreamers, oh

[Outro]
Why'd you leave me so low?
Why'd you leave me so low, baby?
Why'd you leave me so low?
Why'd you leave me so low, baby?
