It's Ice Lyrics - Rift - Phish

I press on the elastic sheet, I'm breathing through a slice 

Are they worms or are they serpents? Bubbles through the ice 

The source was quite invisible, the ever present voice 

While skating both legs tracing different shapes, I made my choice 

Mimicking the image in whose radiance I bask 

I'm tied to him, or him to me depending who you ask 

None the less reluctantly reflections tumble in 

I slide with all the others on the wrong side of the skin 

He's fallen on the ice, it cracks 

Will he plunge in and join me here? 

He meets my eyes, to my surprise 

He laughs in full light of my frown 

My double wants to pull me down 

Slipping on the friction slide my skin peels to the bone 

The flesh I leave behind is something that is not my own 

I beg my mirror image for a moment with my soul 

He's pleading back, time to attack it's me who's in control 

And every move I make, he's got a hand up just in time 

He's throwing several punches and he's blocking most of mine 

Defeated now, I sulk and squirm in my [Incomprehensible] frozen ice 

Waiting, calculating till next he ventures on the ice 

He's fallen on the ice, it cracks 

Will he plunge in and join me here? 

He meets my eyes, to my surprise 

He laughs in full light of my frown 

My double wants to pull me down 

He's fallen on the ice, it cracks 

Will he plunge in and join me here? 

He meets my eyes, to my surprise 

He laughs in full light of my frown 

My double wants to pull me down 

He's fallen on the ice, it cracks 

Will he plunge in and join me here? 

He meets my eyes, to my surprise 

He laughs in full light of my frown 

My double wants to pull me down
