Demi Lovato - Skyscraper

A song which I can easily relate to and identify with - my new anthem! One of the most poignant, uplifting, relatable, inspiring, well-written songs I've heard in a long time! Full of meaning and emotion! Not usually a fan of Demi Lovato but this song has completely converted me, expressing her true, honest self and documenting her journey from a dark place in her life to rising above it like a Skyscraper! All about overcoming low self-esteem and saying a huge f*** you to all the people who berate you and unnecessarily put you down. Love it! This girl is definitely on my radar!

Demi Lovato - 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
Ohh
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
