lyrics

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...you like the rain
you like the water, and I like the noise it makes (x3)

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 these 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
