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 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) Thrown away, oh 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) Throw me down (and now I'll pay) Throw me down (Woe is come to me) Throw me down (I am the lightning rod) Throw me down (I am waiting) Throw me down (on a mountaintop) Throw me down (oh, above me) Throw me down (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
