Under the Ice - The Drums

I’m under the ice

My whole life

If you see me gently smiling baby

You should know I’m just trying not to cry

Under the ice

My whole life

If you see me gently smiling baby

You should know I’m just trying not to cry

I see you skating by

You look strong, you look full of life

I gather strength then change my mind

My heart goes dark

Then I fall behind

I’m under the ice

My whole life

If you see me gently smiling baby

You should know I’m just trying not to cry

Under the ice

My whole life

If you see me gently smiling baby

You should know I’m just trying not to cry

We all get a chance at joy

Did mine come and go?

Every morning I quit smoking

Every night I’m bumming a light

I’m under the ice

My whole life

If you see me gently smiling baby

You should know I’m just trying not to cry

Under the ice

How much longer do I have to wait

For you to come and burn a hole through my soul?

I want to skate on top with you

And it’s cold and it’s dark and I’m scared

And I’m still under the ice

My whole life

If you see me gently smiling baby

You should know I’m just trying not to cry
