Your eyes scan the horizon,
They see a lot of
empty space
Every hole you
have to fill for the mighty dollar
bill
Every storey you
tack on is money in the bank
Your eyes scan the horizon
What you gonna do
when there's nothing left to
prove?
What you gonna say
when they come for you
someday?
Get your storeys
straight till then
Try to find an
honest friend
Bring this
nonsense to an end
Skyscraper
Your hands take
hold of my future
Your mind is a
dangerous thing
Every time you
speak aloud the anger builds
throughout the crowd
Every time the
camer's on you always strike a
pose
Your hands take
hold of my future
What you gonna do
when they try to challenge you?
Where you gonna
run when they hunt you with your
gun?
Take the time to
think it through
The button wasn't
meant for you
There's nothing
else that you should do
Skyscraper
What you gonna do
when the world is done with
you?
What you gonna say
when you're up on judgement
day?
Give us something
we can use
Walk a mile in all
our shoes
Oh I wouldn't want
to be like you
Oh I wouldn't want
to be like you
