The Smile - Skrting On The Surface

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

When we realize, we have only to dive, then we're out of here (oh, oh, oh)
We're just skating on the surface (oh, oh, oh)
We have only to click our fingers, and we'll disappear (oh, oh, oh)
We're just skating on the surface (oh, oh, oh)

Dull eyes, trying to pull you through the ice (oh, oh, oh)
Being drawn to the ledge (oh, oh, oh)
When we realize that we are broken, nothing mends (oh, oh, oh)
We can drop under the surface, ooh

When we realize we are merely held in suspension (oh, oh, oh)
Till someone comes along and shakes us (oh, oh, oh)
As the pattern lines cross our fingers like a web (oh, oh, oh)
Do we die upon the surface? (oh, oh, oh)

Dull eyes, trying to pull you through the ice
Being drawn to a ledge (oh, oh, oh)
When we realize that we are broken, nothing mends
We can drop under the surface, ooh

Ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
