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
