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
Somedays we laugh, somedays we cry
Somedays we're broken, somedays 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 loathed myself because you were so good
Two wretched fools in a raging riptide
We never fought it or understood
Some days we laugh, somedays we cry
Some days we're broken, somedays we're fine
But through it all you cared for me
Some days we love, somedays we're just speaking fire
Some days we love, somedays 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 place
A smile finds my face again, cos goddamn what a time it's been, and what a time it's going to be
Some days we laugh, somedays we cry
Some days we're broken, somedays we're fine
Somedays we love, somedays we just wanna hurt
Somedays we're broken, somedays we shine
