Comes and Goes

I thought we were solid, I thought you were true But the truth cut deeper than the pain I knew You were there for the highs, the nights so bright When the drinks were pouring and the mood was right

But when the darkness fell, and I reached out my hand You vanished like shadows in shifting sand Love and loyalty, just words you'd throw Your friendship, like the tide, comes and goes

[Pre-Chorus]You're around when the cash is flowing, yeah When the good times roll, you're glowing, yeah But when I'm down, you act like we're through Funny how the fakes always come through

[Chorus]It comes and goes, like the fleeting windHere for the feast, but gone when it's thin They claim they're ride or die, but I'm left here alone The truth stings sharper than I've ever knownIt comes and goes, yeah, it comes and goes

[Verse 2]Now I see clear, your love was a show You chased the glitter, not what was below You cared for the flash, not the sweat and the strife When the wealth dried up, so did your life

I'm wiser now, learned to let go Your hollow words are nothing I'll knowI've no room for those who play their parts I'm through with the fakes who just fall apart

[Pre-Chorus] You're around when the cash is flowing, yeah When the good times roll, you're glowing, yeah But when I'm down, you act like we're through Funny how the fakes always come through

[Chorus] It comes and goes, like the fleeting wind Here for the feast, but gone when it's thin They claim they're ride or die, but I'm left here alone The truth stings sharper than I've ever known It comes and goes, yeah, it comes and goes

[Bridge] Where were you when I needed a friend?Where were you at my life's bitter end?I gave you my faith, you gave me deceit Now I'm severing ties, it's time to retreat

It comes and goes, like the fleeting wind Here for the feast, but gone when it's thin They claim they're ride or die, but I'm left here alone The truth stings sharper than I've ever known It comes and goes, yeah, it comes and goes

[Outro]It comes and goes, yeah, it comes and goes Now I see who's real, and who just pretends It comes and goes... but I'm letting it go
