Come and Go
TOKiMONSTA Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Good on my own
Love gon' come and go
Better alone
Love gon' come and run
It's the hurt we have to take, yeah
Nothing's gonna change my ways
Love's gon' come and go
I have always been a fighter
Dodging bullets, run through fire
Do I like the way you slide up?
It'd be easy to fly
Toward your Heaven, it's Armageddon, but
I'ma leave you now, I'm sorry
Life been crazy, duck and I'll weave
Thinking straight too hard right now

I'm good on my own
Love gon' come and go
Better alone
Love gon' come and run
It's the hurt we have to take, yeah
Nothing's gonna change my ways
Love's gon' come and go

Look around you
Beat the crowd
Ain't no one have you figured out
God stay up on the chest here (with the chest here)
People wild and they're messy
Everything around is fading
Everyone around is changing
Better to move slowly
Better to think for me

Good on my own
Love gon' come and go
Better alone (yeah)
Love gon' come and run
It's the hurt we have to take, yeah
Nothing's gonna change my ways
Love's gon' come and go

Good on my own
Said love's gon' come
Better alone
Love's gon' come





Said love's gon' come and run, hey

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of the song Come and Go by TOKiMONSTA and VanJess reflect the emotional state of a person trying to choose between being alone and being in love. The singer of the song acknowledges that love comes and goes in one's life, and the hurt that comes with it is inevitable. However, the person also admits that being alone is not easy, but it may be better in the long run. The song suggests that loving somebody can be like facing Armageddon, but the person prefers to leave the relationship as life is crazy, and making decisions is difficult at the moment.


The song seems to be encouraging listeners to look around and be aware of their surroundings. There are people who can influence and guide our love lives, but ultimately, we have to make our own decisions even though life can be messy and wild. The lyrics imply that people change, and everything fades away, making it better to move slowly and to think for ourselves.
