Lightning Rod

I am waiting On a mountaintop For the moment that the sky will strike My apologies Are forever lost Soon to ashes in a flash of light Miles away from me Hope is fading soon Gone forever it's a waste of time My intentions Like a sweeter room Only bring to me a fading light Locked up forever inside I look to the stars and ask why Oh - If they could just teach my dark heart to feel All I've saved - oh why Thrown away - oh I am waiting Like a single bloom Lost forever in the storm of life My intentions Like a sweeter room Only bring to me a fading light Locked up forever inside I look to the stars and ask why Oh - If they could just show these wounds how to heal Here I am - oh why My last stand - oh why And I know For all the rising and falling there's nothing to show Throw me down Throw me down Throw me down It's been raining - Throw me down And now I will pay - Throw me down Woe has come to me - Throw me down I am the lightning rod - Throw me down I am waiting - Throw me down On a mountaintop - Throw me down Oh above me - Throw me down He will strike me! Locked up forever inside I look to the stars and ask why Oh - If they could just teach my dark heart to feel All I am - oh why My last stand - oh why And I know For all the rising and falling there's nothing to show
