Description
One of Blackout's early originals. Powerful, complex instrumentals, accompanied by articulate lyrics designed to get a crowd up and moving at the start of a show. Lead singer/lyricist Ameris Shepard described the lyrics as "a fun way of looking at the awkward beginnings of a new relationship. Both are not totally sure if they're "ready" or not, but there is still that timeless curiosity in each other that keeps them playing all the mind tricks."
Lyrics
we speak in metaphors 'cause we're so scared of making sense choosing is our biggest weakness we keep trying to take sides we're both sitting on the fence we do not want this starting up again we're not ready are you ready? so there's one thing that I need to know if I let this flame start, will the whole thing just explode? I'm not saying we should let this go I'm just trying to make sure that you're ready are you ready? we haven't said a word we've just been playing sharades what do you think that I will do next? well I'm tired of guessing so sick of playing games so there's just one question I've left to ask are you ready? are you ready? so before I take this leap of faith all I can do is hope that I don't land flat on my face I'm not saying we should walk away I only wanted to know are you ready? are you ready? are you ready? are you ready? so before I take this leap of faith all I can do is hope this whole thing doesn't just explode and before we simply walk away I'm just dying to know are you ready? are you ready? are you ready?
