Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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 mountaintop
Throw me down
Oh, above me
Throw me down
He will strike me
[Chorus]
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
