In January 2022 it was revealed that the band had gotten back together with the original She Watched the Sky line-up, minus Kyle Simmons. The current band's line up is: Jordan Blake (lead vocals), Nick Miller (guitar), Joey Wilson (guitar), Brian White (bass & backup vocals), and Cory La Quay (drums).
However, on February 16, 2022, a new song, Dead Serious, was released by former vocalist Michael "Jag" Jagmin under the A Skylit Drive name, thus creating two separate versions of the band. One being the original lineup, and the other led by Jag.
Michael "Jag" Jagmin filed a lawsuit against the original members of the band for infringement on the name on March 15, 2022, and on April 3, 2022 Jagmin announced two new members joining him and Jon Kintz in his ASD lineup: drummer Casey "KC" Marotta and guitarist/vocalist Louie Caycoya.
On April 23, 2022, the original lineup announced that moving forward, they would preform as "ASD" for the foreseeable future, with Jag's lineup holding the rights to the "A Skylit Drive" name.
on May 1st, 2023, original ASD vocalist Jordan Blake would pass away
Pursuit Lets Wisdom Ride the Wind
A Skylit Drive Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leave the sun behind
Into the night
Follow me we ride
To faulter is not an option tonight
Laying down our last sacrifice
Let's bring our swords to life
Will we both go home?
And I'm waiting for tomorrow
Where we have no home
I know
My life is worth it you're beautiful
Just save yourself yeah!
Leave the hurt and despair all behind
I must pave my way
Where's your heart?
Leave the sun behind
Into the night
Where are you my bride?
The choices I've made negate the light from my life
As I bring forth my end tonight
My heart beats so divine
And I'm waiting for tomorrow
Will we both go home?
And I'm waiting for tomorrow
Where we have no home
I know
And all the faces that said they loved me
I gave my all for your life
