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

    You can take everything I have
    You can break everything I am
    Like I’m made of glass
    Like I’m of paper

    Go on and try to tear me down
    I’ll be rising from the ground
    Like a skyscraper
    Like a skyscraper

    As the smoke clears
    I awaken and untangle you from me
    Would it make feel better
    To watch me while I bleed
    All my windows, still are broken
    But I’m standing on my feet

    You can take everything I have
    You can break everything I am
    Like I’m made of glass
    Like I’m of paper

    Go on and try to tear me down
    I’ll be rising from the ground
    Like a skyscraper
    Like a skyscraper

    [bad word]  [bad word]     I’m gonna stay right here
    Watch you disappear

    [bad word] run run
    Yeah its a long way down
    But I’m closer to clouds up here

    You can take everything I have
    You can break everything I am
    Like I’m made of glass
    Like I’m of paper

    Go on and try to tear me down
    I’ll be rising from the ground
    Like a skyscraper
    Like a skyscraper
    Like a skyscraper
    Like a skyscraper
    Like a skyscraper
