Lyrics
Lauren:
Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence, as it's ending, like we never had a chance.
Dinah:
Do you have to make me feel like, there's nothing left of me?
Normani:
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Camila:
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper
Ally:
Go run run run I'm gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear yeah
Lauren:
Go run run run yeah it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here
Dinah:
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
Ally:
Go on and try to tear me down
We will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
