[Verse 1]
Skyscrapers, please forgive me, I didn't mean a word I said
Skyscrapers, I was just tangled up in my own head
And somehow in all the madness, I thought I was seeing straight
It ain't always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way
[Hook]
And I guess all I ever loved was standing right before my eyes
And I, oh I, was blind
[Verse 2]
So, skyscrapers, please forgive me, I'm standing here a penitent man
Oh, skyscrapers, I'll never look down again, again
[Hook]
Oh, 'cause I guess all I ever loved was standing right before my eyes
Oh yeah, I guess all I ever loved was standing right before my eyes
[Outro]
And I, yeah I, I was blind
You were right here all the time
You were right here all the time
I was blind
