The debut single from American-Australian songwriter Seb Szabo, happily singing sad songs in Melbourne.

lyrics

TEARS WE’VE BEEN HOLDING BACK

Well now my friend there’s so much I’ve left to say
Before I start searching for your face in yesterday
Creatures of hope though we may be
We’re bound by fate, so cruel is she
That we stand here at the airport in wistful agony

Some days we love, and some days we cry
Some days we’re broken, some days we’re fine
But through it all, you cared for me, and I for you

You bore my soul in all its peculiar shapes
You stared down all of the ugliness in me
Sometimes I truly loathe myself because you were so good
Two wretched fools in a raging riptide
We never fought it or understood

Some days we laugh, and some days we cry
Some days we’re broken and some days we’re fine
But through it all, you cared for me

Some days we laugh and some days we’re speaking fire                
Some days we love, some days we just wanna die

Here comes the moment where we must say goodbye
The tears that we’ve been holding back come rolling in 
As you let me go and board that plane, a smile finds my face again
Because goddamn what a time it’s been… and what a time it’s gonna be 

Some days we love
Some days we cry
Some days we’re broken
Some days we’re fine

Some days we love
And some days we just wanna hurt
Some days we’re hoping
Some days we shine
