Lyrics:
I have seen you in the footlights I have watched you in the crowd
I have seen you with the lovers One by one you laid them down
I have seen you raise the bottle to keep them from getting in
I have seen serene surrender In a glimmer on your skin

Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready to come down
Are you willing to go under Let your broken pieces drown
Are you ready Are you ready For the weightless waking dream
Where the sirens of the river will deliver you to me

Let your mind go empty hear the whistle of the wind
Close your eyes and listen to the secret song within
Your life was born from darkness The seed alone in earth
It pulsed among the shadows Before your aching birth

Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready to come down
Are you willing to go under Let your broken pieces drown
Are you ready Are you ready For the weightless waking dream
Where the sirens of the river will deliver you to me

Let it in Let it out Let the river flow Let it in Let it out Let it go
Let it in Let it out Let the river flow Let it in Let it out Let it go

Bring me all your secrets Your betrayals and your shame
The cold and bitter silence That keeps you from love’s claim
Lay down your empty glories Built on cleverness and schemes
Let go your tired stories of the dead ends of your dreams

Are you ready Are you ready Are you ready to come down
Are you willing to go under Let your broken pieces drown
Are you ready Are you ready For the weightless waking dream
Where the sirens of the river will deliver you to me
