Skyscraper

1. Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence, as its ending,
like we never had a chance.
Do you have to make me feel
like there’s nothing left of me?

R: You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I’m made of glass
Like I’m made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper

2. As the smoke clears
I awaken and untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
to watch me while I bleed
All my windows still are broken
but I’m standing on my feet
R: You can take everything I have...

*: Go run run run I’m gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear yeah
Go run run run yeah it’s a long way down
But I’m closer to the clouds up here

R: You can take everything I have...
... Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper (2x)
Like a skyscraper
