Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence, has an ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to
Make me feel like
There is nothing left of me
[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
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
To me, these lyrics mean so much. Whenever I have a problem I just plug in my earphones and listen to this. It keeps telling me that, like a skyscraper, I have the strength to stand tall despite all the problems and challenges life throws my way. The song gives me the determination and spirit I need, it makes me feel like I can do and accomplish anything.
To those people out there who think they have no chance of overcoming a situation, please don't give up. There's always a way, and there's always a choice. You can choose to wallow in self-pity and give in to trouble, or you can choose to fight for yourself and stand tall, like a skyscraper.
