Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending,
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to, make me feel like there's nothing left of me?

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down,
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper!
Like a skyscraper!

As the smoke clears I awaken,
and untangle you from me
Would it make you, feel better to watch me while I bleed?
All my windows, still are broken, but I'm standing on my feet!

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down,
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper!
Like a skyscraper!

Go on run run run
I'm gonna stand by here
Watch you disappear, yeah
Go on run run run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds from here

You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down,
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper!
Like a skyscraper!
Like a skyscraper!
Like a skyscraper!

"I'm looking forward to hearing the final thing as when we were making it, I was singing over plain backing tracks and they've built the music up after."

She added: "The album itself is a mixture of everything. There are new songs and covers, but I think they'll be covers that people won't have heard in a long time.

"There's a couple of duets on there as well which I'm very excited about."
