Eivør Pálsdóttir
Skyscrapers
[Verse 1]
I stretch my limbs like a rubber band
Grasping for something just out of reach
On these narrow streets from where I stand
I'm barely breathing, it's no place for me
[Chorus]
I wanna get beyond the skyscrapers
I wanna get beyond the skyscrapers
[Post-Chorus]
I'd do it for you, I'd do it for you
I'm moving so slowly
[Verse 2]
I've seen it in my visions, I felt it in my bones
Some truths you just have to find on your own
My mind is my prison, my body is my home
My heart knows the secret that keeps me holding on
[Chorus 2]
I wanna get beyond the skyscrapers
I wanna get beyond the skyscrapers
I know that freedom waits somewhere behind
The skyscrapers
[Post-Chorus]
I'd do it for you, I'd do it for you
I'm moving so slowly, I'm moving so slowly
