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 made of paper
 Go on and try to tear me down
 I will 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 you, 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 made of paper
 Go on and try to tear me down
 I will be rising from the ground
 Like a skyscraper
 Like a skyscraper

 [bad word]  [bad word]  I'm gonna stay right here, watch you disappear
 Yea, oh
 [bad word]  [bad word]  Yeah, it's a long way down
 But I am closer to the clouds up here

 You can take everything I have
 You can break everything I am
 Like I'm made of glass
 Like I'm made of paper
 Ohh Ohhhh!
 Go on and try to tear me down
 I will be rising from the ground
 Like a skyscraper
 Like a skyscraper

 Like a skyscraper
 Like a skyscraper
 Like a skyscraper
