Lighting Rod

I am waiting
On a mountaintop
for the moment that the sky wil 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 intensions
Like a sweeter room
Only bring to me a fading light

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
Is thrown away ooooh

I am waiting
Like a single bloom
Lost forever in the storm of life
My intensions
Like a sweeter room
Only bring to me a fading light

Lock up forever inside
I look to the stars and ask why
If they could just show theese wounds how to heal
Here I am - oh why
My last stand - oh why
And I know
For all rising and falling there is 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 is come to me
(Throw me down)
I am the lighting rod
(Throw me down)
I am waiting
(Throw me down)
On a mountain top
(Throw me down)
Oh above me
(Throw me down)
We will strike me!

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 rising and falling there is nothing to show
