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 that I was seeing straight.
It ain't always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way.
And I guess, all I ever loved,
Was standing right before my eyes.
And I, oh I, I was blind.
So skyscrapers, please forgive me,
I stand here a penitent man.
Oh skyscrapers, I'll never look down again, again.
Oh, 'cause I guess, all I ever loved,
Was standing right before my eyes.
Oh yeah, I guess, all I've ever known,
Was standing, was standing, was standing here all the time.
And I, yeah I, I was blind,
I was blind,I was blind.
You were right here all the time,
You were right here all the time, I was blind.
I was blind,
I was blind.
Oh, I was blind,
Oh, I was blind.
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 that I was seeing straight.
It ain't always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way.

I was blind,I was blind.
You were right here all the time,
You were right here all the time, I was blind.
I was blind,
I was blind.
Oh, I was blind,
Oh, I was blind.
