Tired of Fighting - Tired of Failing

I want you to teach me, how to kill at parties
Dislocate them, and spill their stories
Of what it's like to live, with this condition
Of failing engines, and crying children

We got tired of failing, and tired of fighting
Done with friction, and sick of trying
You used to bail me, out in moments
I live alone now, and I'm just hopeless

You used to tell me, about the ocean
Expansive and unknown, just like our future
My green eyes grazed on you, your dailies were overdue
They scratched as they misconstrued, through optics and overuse

We got tired of failing, and tired of fighting
Done with friction, and sick of trying
You used to bail me, out in moments
I live alone now, and I'm just hopeless

'Cos I like the thunder, I like the thunder, I like the thunder
you like the rain
you like the water, and I like the noise it makes

We got tired of failing (I failed)
And tired of fighting (the fight)
Done with friction (knocked clean out)
And sick of trying (by bar light)
You used to bail me (feeling blue)
Out in moments (I saw you)
I live alone now (but it ain't true)
And I'm just hopeless (the trail leaves clues)
And all those churches (world weary)
They promise heaven (now I see)
Well the catholic hymns, have drawn me in
Now I can see your shadow (the sky it blurred)
'Cos I'm like the thunder (but it emerged)
And you're like the rain (as clear as day)
You're like the water (as clear as day)
And I'm just an echo
