I am waiting on a mountain top
For the moment that the sky will 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 intentions like a sweeter room
Only bring to me a fading light
Locked up forever inside
I look to the stars and ask why
Oh, if they could just teach my dark heart to feel
All I've saved (oh 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
Oh 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, throw me down, throw me down...
It's been raining
And now I will pay
Woe has 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
Oh 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
