Skrting On the Surface Lyrics by The Smile
When we realize we are only to die then we’re out of here
We’re just skirting on the surface
We have only to click our fingers and we disappear
We’re just skirting on the surface
Dull eyes trying to pull you through the ice
Being drawn to the ledge
When we realize that once we’re broke and nothing mends
We can drop under the surface
When we realize we’re only held in suspension
‘Til someone comes along and shakes us
As the pattern lines cross their fingers like a web
‘Til we die upon the surface
Dull eyes trying to pull you through the ice
Being drawn to the ledge
When we realize that once we’re broke and nothing mends
We can drop under the surface
