Lightning Rod

[Verse 1] 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 from 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 [Chorus] Locked up forever inside I look to the stars and ask why If they could just teach my dark heart to feel All I've saved‚ oh why Thrown away [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Locked up forever inside I look to the stars and ask why 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 [Bridge] (Throw me down) It's been raining And now I will pay Woe is come to me I am the lightning rod I am waiting On a mountaintop Oh above me He will strike me! [Chorus] Locked up forever inside I look to the stars and ask why 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
