Lightning Rod Lyrics

Lightning Rod

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

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
