Lyrics John Barrowman

John Barrowman

Skyscraper

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!

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!

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!
