Everdeen - Fairweather Friend (Official Lyric Video)

LYRICS:
It seems like only yesterday
We were on the same team, running high
You told me you were there to stay
Pulling on the same string, ride or die

But nothing ever stays the same for life
All those promises you made were lies
Guess you only showed up all those times
Cuz there was something in it for you

Can we stop trying to pretend
That I’m not another means to ends
You can’t fix
What won’t bend
My fairweather friend

Seems like only yesterday
We were on the same side, thick as thieves
Turns out that you called all those times
Cuz I could give you something that you need

So you just walked away for good this time
And you wouldn’t even tell me why
Guess you made those other plans that night
Cuz there was something in it for you

Can we stop trying to pretend
That I’m not another means to ends
You can’t fix
What won’t bend
My fairweather friend
Are you ever gonna learn to read the room
It doesn’t always gotta be about you
But that’s cool
Cuz you’re my fairweather
Fairweather friend

My fairweather friend
My fairweather friend

Can we stop trying to pretend
That I’m not another means to ends
You can’t fix
What won’t bend
My fairweather friend
Are you ever gonna learn to read the room
It doesn’t always gotta be about you
But that’s cool
Cuz you’re my fairweather
Fairweather friend

ABOUT:
We all have that one friend who only calls when they need something but take off when they get a better offer. Stuttgart-based Everdeen’s latest single is a synthwave-flavored indie pop feelgood anthem dedicated to calling out these kinds of friends out with a sassy smile and a lighthearted middle finger. Ethereal female vocals float over swirling synths and driving drums with a chorus you can’t help but sing along to.
