It Comes And It Goes

some days i want love
somedays i don’t
sometimes i can feel it
then suddenly it’s gone
somedays i can tell you the truth
and somedays i just don’t

only a change of mood, sun goes down
someone says something too quick or too soon
a touch not made, one made too late
armies of words cannot hope to contain

that it comes and it goes
and i have no control

somedays i can think clear
somedays i won’t
sometimes i can feel it
and suddenly it’s gone
somedays i am strong
and somedays my skin’s broken and thin

it arrives when it feels
and it takes what it needs
and it leaves before i get to know
it’s only a step away, moments
then armies of words cannot hope to contain

that it comes and it goes
and i can’t make it hold
and there’s nothing i own
and it breaks me when it goes

somedays i want love
somedays i don’t
sometimes i can feel it
and suddenly it’s gone
somedays i can tell you the truth and
somedays i just don’t

only a change of mood, drink comes out
someone does something to quick or too soon
a move not made, one made too late
armies of words cannot hope to contain

that it comes and it goes
and i can’t seem to hold
and there’s nothing i own
and it breaks me when it goes
