[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]
Skyscrapers, all those details and patterns
Against someone else's love
Skyscrapers, it was every which kind of fucked up

[Hook]
And I guess, something had to give
Times being what they are
And I guess, something had to give
Had to give

[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
So, skyscrapers, please forgive me
I didn't mean a word I said
Oh, skyscrapers, I was just tangled up
In my own head

[Hook]
And I guess, something had to give
Times being what they are
And I guess, something had to give
Had to give
[Outro]
Yeah, I guess, something had to give
Times being what they are
And I guess, something had to give
Had to give
