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

A Skylit Drive Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am a non worthy sinner
Still I pray for you
When will you be the star in the sky for me
All eyes on you
Sing a song for me
Lay your trust in me
I’ll be your remedy note
Scrambling to shut the door
Leave the cold wanting more
Scrambling to shut the door
Leave the cold wanting more
Embrace your mind
Set it free
Remember everything you lost
Have a seat in my car
We'll take the 99 north past three
I am where still breathing now
I’m not leaving why are you so scared?
Recline the seat back, let's drive
North till the sunrise
Why you so...
I’m not leaving from this parade till I die
Why you so scared?
Why you so scared?
With your hands on me
I’ll keep my eyes on you
I’ll promise to be
A little secret that will pull you through
Secret passage through the weight of the world
Why you so,
I’m not leaving from this parade till I die
Why you so scared?
Why you so scared?
Hands at my side oh will I live or die
I'll be strong
This is my life
Through open eyes
This is my life
Through open eyes
Why you so scared?
