Lyrics:
I can see it in your eyes
See it in your face
Banging on your chest
Acting tough looking unfazed

Tripping over landlines
Cutting deep with a dull blade (blade)
Running out of unrest
Goin’ out of your mind

Lonely days will follow
Days will follow
And the gaze that stuck
The halls will know your name

Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock

Aftershock
Aftershock
Triggered by the aftershock

I can see it with my own eyes
The tracks down your face
It can’t be easy tryna unwind
Sleepin’ on your day dreams

I’m not tryna role play
I keep thinkin’ break us take the wheel
These days can break
But I’m gonna take the wheel

Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock

Aftershock
Aftershock
Triggered by the aftershock

Bet on the winners
Worst of you’s born to lose
Bed with no dinner
The rest of you’s born to lose
Better than zero
Worst of you’s born to lose
Bet on the winners

Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock
Hit me like a tidal wave
Triggered by the aftershock

Aftershock
Aftershock
Aftershock
