Lyrics for Skyscraper - Acoustic

Come let us make bricks and burn them hard We'll build a city With a tower for the world And climb so we can reach Anything we may propose Anything at all Build me up Tear me down Like a skyscraper Build me up And tear down these joining walls So they can't climb at all I know why You tore it down that day You thought that if you got caught We'd all go away Like a spoiled little baby Who can't come out and play You had your revenge Build me up Tear me down Like a skyscraper Build me up And tear down these joining walls So they can't climb at all Well, madness reigned And paradise fell When Babel's walls came crashing down Now the echoes roar For a story writ That was hardly understood And never any good Build me up Tear me down Like a skyscraper Build me up And tear down these joining walls So they can't climb at all
