I am waiting on a mountaintop
For the moment that the sky will strike
My apologies are forever lost
Soon two ashes in a flash of light

Miles away from me
Hope is fading soon
Gone forever is a waste of time
My intentions like a spinning 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 change my dark heart to feel
All I've Saved
Thrown away

I am waiting like the single bloom
Lost forever in the storm of life
My intentions like a spinning 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
My last stand
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
And I will pay
World must come to me
I am a lightning rod

I am waiting
On a mountaintop
World above me
He will strike me

Locked up forever inside
I look to the stars and ask why
Oh if they could just change my dark heart to feel

All I am
My last stand
And I know for all the rising and falling there's nothing to show
Splinter

The vocal melody and guitar melody blend so perfectly. Great strong, energetic track off this kickass album.

Mix the strongest vocals with fast uptempo midsections, and punch in a slower stronger chorus; and you've got the best track on the album. Oh and the lyrics are amazing too.
