"818" lyrics

"818"

You fell in my direction
Got everyone's attention
With no, no one to blame
So your eyes are getting bigger
I could never figure
Why I can never complain
Excess is out of fashion
You're having what they're having
It's all, always the same

Everyone was asking how I know you
And I want to say I don't, don't

You used to come over on the weekends
When you had nowhere to go
We would do some nothing
But now I have to go out to see you
See you showing off with all your new friends
It's just unreasonable
Conversations boring
Why do I have to
See them to see you?

You, you, you, you were a gas, gas, gas
And I don't, don't know
What was so wrong with the life that you had

And I'm wondering what you're catching
What you think you're lacking
All I know is I miss your face
Put your faith in other people
Telling them to tell you
"It's fine, you're still in L.A."
Please, she said, please

You used to come over on the weekends
When you had nowhere to go
We would do some nothing
But now I have to go out to see you
See you showing off with all your new friends
It's just unreasonable
Conversations boring
Why do I have to
See them to see you?

You used to come over on the weekends
When you had nowhere to go
We would do some nothing
But now I have to go out to see you

See you showing off with all your new friends
It's just unreasonable
Conversations boring
Why do I have to
See them to see you?
