[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
Oh, I, I was blind

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

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