"Ice" captures the emotional walls we put up after heartbreak. After leaving a long-term relationship, I found myself hesitant to trust, afraid of being hurt again—especially by those who once swore they wouldn’t. So, I’d rather pull away, stay independent, and keep my guard up than risk vulnerability.

The title plays on "Ice, ice, baby," but it also reflects the paradox of emotional self-preservation: Am I protecting myself, or am I freezing myself out? Because ice can burn, too—and loneliness, like the cold, can start to hurt if you let it linger too long. The song wrestles with that tension, questioning whether shutting people out is truly the safest choice or just another way of getting hurt.
