Showdown

Looking for you I've been looking for me
Looking for something to help me believe
I cried for mercy
I have prayed to the Lord
The angels have fallen and now I cry some more
Meet me at the crossroads to show me which way to turn
I've tried so hard but i never seem to learn
Too many cloudy days
And so many sleepless nights
Hoping for Jesus to make everything alright
Rivers run dry for you and I
Now there's a storm and it's coming my way
Heading for a showdown
Blood red sky
The tears you cry
Now there's a fire and it's burning
Standing here in a curtain of iron
So here I stand in this spotlight it's my destiny
Waiting for the coming day trying to find the key
Looking for you I'm still looking for me
Looking for something to help me believe
Rivers run dry for you and I
Now there's a storm and it's coming my way
Heading for a showdown
Blood red sky
The tears you cry
Now there's a fire and it's burning
Standing here in a curtain of iron
I'll go where the wind blows to the end of the rainbow
Drifting slowly to the point of no return
Will the children ever learn
Looking for you i've been looking for me
Looking for something to help me believe
