[Verse 1]
Skyscrapers, please forgive me
I didn't mean a word I said
Skyscrapers, I was just tangled up in my own head

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
And I guess all I ever loved
Was standing right before my eyes
And I
Ohhh, I
I was blind

[Verse 3]
So skyscrapers, please forgive me
I stand here a penitent man
Oh, skyscrapers, I'll, I'll never look down again, again

[Chorus]
Oh, 'cause I guess all I ever loved
Was standing right before my eyes
Oh, I guess all I ever loved
Was standin', was standin', was standing here all the time
And I
Yeah I
Oh, I was blind
Yeah, I was blind
Oh, I was blind
And I, I, I...
I was blind
