about

'Hating on a Heartache' tells the story of that all too familiar point in a relationship, when fighting takes over and the inability to communicate past heartache sets in.

With heart pounding percussion, hooky synths and ‘70s inspired guitar licks all wrapped up in a highly infectious melody, Hating on a Heartache takes the listener through Sophie’s fight to accept love again. Driven by intimate and captivating vocals fused with emotionally exposing lyricism, this track takes you back to the crossroad, where you decide whether to continue letting past hurt sabotage your desire to be loved.

As Sophie explains: Hating on a Heartache is that early hours fight with your boyfriend, girlfriend or whoever where it ends with one of you storming out, slamming the door and the other left thinking, shit, I’ve gone too far. It is about carrying the hurt and hate from a past heartache into a new relationship, fearing to love again due to fear of being hurt again. It doesn’t matter what that heartache stems from, but the only way to start moving on is to open up about it and that is on me.”

lyrics

Nearly 4am the door’s been slammed
Our heart to heart got out of hand
A screaming match where I gave you my worse
But it’s different cos I made you doubt
My attachment style has pushed you out
I still can’t tell you my reasons

Oh I’ve never been so loved
Like I am by you
No you won’t understand
Unless I let you

I’m hating on a heartache
Not you
Yeh you’re no stranger
Still I linger on old wounds
I’m hating on a heartache
That’s got nothing on you
But it ain’t as easy to be
Light and breezy when you lose

Saw you with that eyebrow raise
Saying ‘why you gotta be that way?
We don’t talk like we used to.’
Guess I’m terrified I’ll leave you torn
Be the cause that fucked it all
When your kindness was only there to please

Oh I can’t lay it on thick
Cos I’m scared that I’ll end up without
I know it doesn’t seem it
But I need you around

I’m hating on a heartache
Not you
Yeh you’re no stranger
Still, I linger on old wounds
I’m hating on a heartache
That’s got nothing on you
But it ain’t as easy to be
Light and breezy when you lose

Oh, I gotta let you know
Grab my keys with a jacket to go
Oh, I gotta let you see

I’ll tell you my reasons
If you let me
I’m hating on a heartache
Not you
Yeh you’re no stranger
Still, I linger on old wounds
I’m hating on a heartache
That’s got nothing on you
But it ain’t as easy to be
Light and breezy when you lose

I’m hating on a heartache
On a heartache
On a heartache
I’m hating on a heartache
On a heartache
On a heartache
I’m hating on a heartache

I’m hating on a heartache
On a heartache
On a heartache
I’m hating on a heartache
On a heartache
On a heartache
I’m hating on a heartache
