"Lightning Rod" lyrics - MATTHEW WILDER

I am standing out in an open field
Nowhere to run, no shelter
My heart and my soul revealed
But I'm standing with my fist held high
Pointing to the northern sky
Waiting for the shit to strike
I know it's gonna feel right

Come on strike me
Come on light me
Call on the law to come
The hand of god
Light me up like I'm a lightning rod

Truth is frightening
Justice blinding
Line 'em up and load the gun
For the firing squad
Light me up like I'm a lightning rod

Lightning
Lightning
Lightning
Lightning

I don't worry or give to doubt and fear
For I tell myself why should I
I gave blood and shed my tears
I am here 'cause I know where I've been
Watchin' as the clouds roll in
If there's danger in the air tonight
I just know I'm gonna be all right

Come on strike me
Come on light me
Call on the law to come
The hand of god
Light me up like I'm a lightning rod

Truth is frightening
Justice blinding
Line 'em up and load the gun
The firing squad
Light me up like I'm a lightning rod

Come on rain
You gotta baptize me again
Come on sun
You gotta come before the day is done

Come for me now, I am here, I'm ready
Ready to roll and my soul's rock steady
Light me up, I will be your lightning rod

Come on strike me
Come on light me
Call on the law to come
The hand of god
Light me up like I'm a lightning rod

Truth is frightening
Justice blinding
Line 'em up and load the gun
The firing squad
Light me up like I'm a lightning rod

Lightning
Lightning
Lightning
Lightning

Lightning
Lightning
Lightning
Lightning
