lyrics

Black Ice

Lyrics/music : Geneviève Toupin, Chloé Lacasse, Vincent Carré

Is it who you thought you were
Or who you wanted to be
Something seems a little off
A little strange to me
You had this charm and poetry
On the tip of your tongue
You had this way of twisting facts
You had this way of making fun
And there was all this haze
Collecting in my head

Couldn’t see two feet in front of me
The dangers up ahead
But then I saw the crack in the veneer
And I felt the doubt disappear, disappear

Skating on black ice
On a slippery slope
See right through the sheen
To your lies underneath
Skating on black ice
On a slippery slope
Look at all the strength I found
At the end of the rope

Are we ever all aligned
Outside and in
For a while I kept silent
For a while I stayed still
I was fascinated by the nature of the beast
Wanted to put you together
Piece by piece
And there was all this haze
Collecting in my head
There was all this haze
Collecting in my head

Skating on black ice
On a slippery slope
See right through the sheen
To your lies underneath
Skating on black ice
On a slippery slope
Look at all the strength I found
At the end of the rope

I was dizzied by how quickly
You could turn my words around
And watch as I went down
And watch as I went down
I was dizzied by how quickly
You could turn my words around
And watch as I went down
And watch as I went down

Skating on black ice
On a slippery slope
See right through the sheen
To your lies underneath
Skating on black ice
On a slippery slope
Look at all the strength I found
At the end of the rope
