Skyscraper is a group number performed by Devonne Stern, Aurora Everly and Kitty Cole that is featured in the second part of the first episode of the first season, Paint The Sky With Stars, Part Deux. It is originally sung by Demi Lovato. This marks the first vocal performance of Kitty in the series.
After the glee club is terminated and Devonne is suspended, Aurora asks her to help her win it back with a performance in front of Principal Jones. Devonne excitedly agrees, and Kitty joins the group to help with choreography. Aurora gives a rousing speech to try and save the club before the trio, perform in front of the school steps which greatly impress the principal, who deems it "stunning". However, their efforts prove to be useless, as she sticks by her decision to suspend Devonne to her angry response, although the glee club is reinstated.
Lyrics[]
Aurora:
Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops 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?
Devonne and Kitty:
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
Aurora:
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
Devonne and Kitty:
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
Aurora:
Go run, run, run
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear
Yeah, oh
Go run, run, run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here
Aurora:
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh Oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Aurora, Devonne and Kitty:
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
(Like a skyscraper)
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
