Offspring - Lightning Rod |
Lightning Rod
Offspring I am waiting on a mountaintop For the moment that the sky will strike Soon to ashes in a flash of light My apologies are forever lost Hope is fading soon Miles away from me My intentions like a sweeter room Gone forever it's a waste of time 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 Lost forever in the storm of life Only bring to me a fading light I am waning like a single bloom My intentions like a sweeter room Locked up forever inside Oh if they could just show these wounds how to heal I look to the stars and ask why Here I am (oh, why) My last stand (oh, why) Throw me down, throw me down, throw me down... And I know for all the rising and falling there's nothing to show And now I will pay It's been raining I am the lightning rod Woe has come to me I am waiting On a mountaintop He will strike me Oh, above 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 |
