Skrting on the Surface Lyrics

When we realise we have only to dive and we're out of here
We're just skrting on the surface

We have only to click our fingers
And we'll disappear
We're just skrting on the surface

Dull eyes trying to pull you through the ice
Being drawn to the ledge

When we realize that we are broke
And nothing mends
We can drop under the surface

When we realize we are merely held in suspension
Until someone comes along and shakes us

As the pattern lines cross our fingers like a web
Do we die upon the surface?

Dull eyes trying to pull you through the ice
Being drawn to the ledge

When we realize that we are broke
And nothing mends
We can drop under the surface
