Skyscraper
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
Well you always said I'd be lonely
You never put my crown back on me
I cried, I cried, I cried
Sacrificing my mind to atone me
Now bloods dripping, it's dripping back on me
I tried, I tried, I tried
Finally found you at the bottom of a broken glass
Carving sorrys on the floor, who's got time for that?
I remember when we met, you could make me laugh
But I think I'm done with that
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
Turns out I don't need anyone but me
In your eyes, I was always unholy
Now I, know that, you lied
Crying wolf like the boy in that story
Craving sorrows like they were your glory
Don't give, me those, sad eyes
Finally found you at the bottom of a broken glass
Carving sorrys on the floor, who's got time for that?
I remember when we met, you could make me laugh
But I think I'm done with that
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
I think I'm done with that
I'm never coming back
I think I'm done with that
I think I'm done with that
I'm never coming back
I'm sorry, you never proved me wrong
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
Well you always said I'd be lonely
You never put my crown back on me
I cried, I cried, I cried
Sacrificing my mind to atone me
Now bloods dripping, it's dripping back on me
I tried, I tried, I tried
Finally found you at the bottom of a broken glass
Carving sorrys on the floor, who's got time for that?
I remember when we met, you could make me laugh
But I think I'm done with that
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
Turns out I don't need anyone but me
In your eyes, I was always unholy
Now I, know that, you lied
Crying wolf like the boy in that story
Craving sorrows like they were your glory
Don't give, me those, sad eyes
Finally found you at the bottom of a broken glass
Carving sorrys on the floor, who's got time for that?
I remember when we met, you could make me laugh
But I think I'm done with that
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
I think I'm done with that
I'm never coming back
I think I'm done with that
I think I'm done with that
I'm never coming back
I'm sorry, you never proved me wrong
I'm burning through your bones, you were made of paper
Just ashes on a throne, guess I'll see you later
I'm standing on my own, no need to wait for
A person to call home, I'm my own skyscraper
