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 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 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 why Is thrown away 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 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 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 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
