Demi Lovato – Skyscraper Lyrics | 12 years ago |
It's about conquering something. Winning the battle of something, in Demi's case this is depression, cutting, and her eating disorder. Skies are crying, I am watching- she's observing it. Catching tear drops in my hands- it's affecting her. Only silence as it's ending- it's quiet as it ends. Like we never had a chance- they never had a chance of being together happy. (Demi & her disorders) Do you have to make me feel like There's nothing left of me?- it makes her feel like she's weakened and worn down. [Chorus:] You can take everything I have - disorders can take everything she has good in her life You can break everything I am- disorders can break her appearance & how she's viewed. Like I'm made of glass- she feels weak like glass Like I'm made of paper - she feels weak like paper Go on and try to tear me down- disorders are going to try and ruin her life I will be rising from the ground - she'll rise and be stronger and overcome them. Like a skyscraper- she'll overcome them like a skyscraper. Like a skyscraper [Verse 2:] As the smoke clears, I awaken- it's clear and she's back to normal Demi I untangle you from me- she gets the disorders away from her. Would it make you feel better To watch me while I bleed?- Would cutting make the disorders stop? All my windows still are broken- she's still somewhat broken and not fully cured But I'm standing on my feet - but she's better than before and can handle it. [Chorus:] (repeat as above) 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 [Bridge:] Go run, run, run- disorders, go away. I'm gonna stay right here, -she's gonna stay and let them go. Watch you disappear- watch them leave. Yeah, oh Go run, run, run Yeah, it's a long way down- disorders can go to hell. But I am closer to the clouds up here- she can go to heaven. [Chorus:] You can take everything I have You can break everything I am Like I'm made of glass Like I'm made of paper Oh Oh Go on and try to tear me down- disorders try and ruin her. I will be rising from the ground- she'll overcome them Like a skyscraper Like a skyscraper (Like a skyscraper) Like a skyscraper Like a skyscraper |
