Skyscraper by Demi Lovato

48-Hour Challenge

Nothing is left of me
Made of glass
Made of paper
Try to tear me down
As the smoke clears, I awaken
Watch me while I bleed
I'll be rising from the ground
Go, run, run, run
I'm going to stay right here
Break everything, I am

Above are the words to Demi Lovato's "Skyscraper" song. I could feel her emotions to this song. Time and time again, I could relate to what she was singing about. This happened in my life. My emotions can be happy, yet for whatever reason, some people would like nothing better than to ruin this for me. They want me to reach rock bottom. It wouldn't be because of cigarette smoking, drinking, or drugs. It was through other people's insensitivity to my joy of writing.

By adding words to this song, "Skyscraper" by Demi Lovato, I hope you'll get a spark of inspiration that will inspire you. Pick yourself up. Don't give up; Keep on trying.

Skies are crying
Let's keep on trying
Nothing is left of me
Let's not stay there
Be the best that you can be

Made of glass
Don't let it break
You're not a mistake
Made of paper
You won't be torn apart
Take out the whiteout
Correct the words that have hurt you
Have only nice things to say about yourself.

Try to tear me down
Don't listen to harsh criticism
It can only destroy you
As the smoke clears, I awaken
Don't let your heart be broken.

Go run, run, run.
Don't you ruin my fun by staying here.
I'm going to stay right here.
Make yourself known, don't disappear.

Break everything that I am
Do not let people break who you are
Pick up the broken pieces
And get ready for some new releases
Start a new chapter of your life
Alive and kicking
Be brave and keep your heart ticking.

This song made me want to cry. I can't expect to be happy all the time. Most people expect me to stay happy no matter what life throws at me. This is the vibe that I get from them.

Sometimes, it will be appropriate and acceptable to cry. Crying out is easier to do by yourself, rather than in public. From what I have been hearing, people choose not to gather around negative people for fear that it will create a bad image for them. This is too bad. It's not always our choice to be homeless. Since the cost of living is too high, we will end up not having a place to live. Be grateful that you have a place; You never know when it could happen to you. I never dreamt that it would happen to me.

In a world of chaos, let's not get lost. We need to pull together. Memories come and memories go. Cherish the people who come into your life. They come into your life for a reason. Learn from them. You'll never know how long they'll be there. Life is too short. Today, show your love in special ways. Say a kind word to them.

Don't be judgmental. We need to care for those who are needy. Be friendly in your thoughts, words, and deeds.

This song had an impact on me. In the video, Demi Lovato did an excellent job. I could feel her tears. Keep on believing.
