The Offspring - Lightning Rod lyrics

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
