lyrics

How often I remember
The weight of every heartache
The wave of every hand that left me stranded for a time

In moods to cool the embers
They'd rot away the passion
And level all the plans that I'd design

Through logic of opinions
The near collapse of reason
And follow-up reporting that resorts to exposé

For every blackened wish
From overcooking all the anger
There's part of me still needs to burn away

When the Blue Sky divides
I will be ready
I must be ready to rise and face the light
When the Blue Sky divides
I will be ready
I must get ready to rise against the tide
Or catch a boat that's sinking

Got a call on my receiver
The message said come over
Asking if our sacred theme could be revealed

Said I can't go any deeper
And still maintain sobriety
But I'll try to work on ways to break the seal

When the Blue Sky divides
I will be ready
I must be ready to rise and face the light
When the Blue Sky divides
I will be ready
I must get ready to rise against the tide
Or catch the boat that's sinking

So welcome to my bookends
Welcome to the dust between
All the restless turning learning how to read

The rings around the atmosphere
A test of all defenses
Gonna pack it up and move out of 3D
