The Offspring – Lightning Rod lyrics
I am waiting
On a mountaintop
For the moment the the sky will strike
My apologies are forever lost so to ashes in a flsh of light

Miles away from me
Hope if fading soon
Gone forever it's a waist of time
My intentions
Like a sweeter room
Olny bring to me a fading light

Locked up forever inside
I look for the stairs and ask why
If they could just teach my dark heart to feel
All ive 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 a fading light

Locked up forever inside i look to the stairs and ask why
If only they could just show these woundshow 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

Its been raining
And now i will pay
Woh it come to me
Im am the lighting rod

I am waiting
On a mountaintop
Oh above me
He will strike me!

Locked up forever inside
I look to the stairs and ask why
If they could just show 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!
