offspring - lightning rod lyrics

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
