Tidal Wave
Cyan Kicks Lyrics

Hit me like a tidal wave
The overwhelming and all-encompassing impact of a situation or emotion.

Knock knock, who's there?
The anxiety of anticipating a potentially negative situation or confrontation.

It feels like the air escaping my lungs
The sensation of being unable to breathe or speak due to overwhelming emotions or stress.

Cut me into halves
The feeling of being completely broken or shattered by an event or person.

And find out the monster I've become
The realization that one's actions or emotions have turned them into a person they do not recognize or like.

Words so silent squeezing around my neck
The suffocating feeling of unspoken emotions or pain weighing heavily on one's mind.

You're pulling me with you under the water
The feeling of being dragged down or overwhelmed by someone else's emotions or actions.

Eyes so violent seeing through my soul
The intensity of someone else's gaze or scrutiny, leaving one feeling vulnerable and exposed.

Go move on
The realization that in order to heal and recover, one must let go and move forward.

And hit me like a tidal wave
The desire for a jarring and impactful event or emotion to help facilitate healing or growth.

It won't kill me, it won't drown me
The awareness that while a situation or emotion may be overwhelming, one has the strength to endure and overcome it.

Tell me, I'm a deadwing
The desire for honesty and clarity in a situation, even if it may be hurtful or difficult to accept.

It would be easier to see
The acknowledgement that understanding and accepting the truth can help facilitate healing and growth.

Smoke and mirrors, all the errors
The recognition that situations may feel confusing or uncertain, but the truth lies beneath the surface and can be uncovered.

We're just reflections on the wall
The acknowledgement that the way others perceive or treat us is often a reflection of their own issues or emotions.

You're pulling me with you under the water. Under the water
Repetition of the idea that someone else's emotions or actions are overwhelming and all-consuming.
