Lightning Rod

I am waiting on a mountain top 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-oh I am waning 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, oh-oh Throw me down Throw me down Throw me down (it's been raining) Throw me down (and I will pay) Throw me down (woe is come to me) Throw me down (I am the lightning rod) Throw me down (I am waiting) Throw me down (on a mountain top) 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, oh-oh
