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?)
Thrown away, oh-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, oh-oh
Throw me down
Throw me down
Throw me down (it's been raining)
Throw me down (and I will 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 mountain top)
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, oh-oh
