Come and Go

there he went
each night he left
no idea where 
the lies never stopped

faking to those who believed
breaking those who didn't
all that time
spent in a lie

come back then leave again and again
whishing for one to stick
picked up started over
fresh and new even exciting

leave it all behind 
pretend you came
you don't want them anymore
I knew that with your foot out the door

you said it wouldn't change
but everything did
everything was gone
you didn't what us anymore

like trash stupid dumb fools
enjoy your new life
