Skies are crying, I am watching

I am filled with such sorrow, I don't know how to describe it. It started with a shock, and almost denial. It's not the same as when people are bombed in a country far away. And I can't even believe I just wrote that. But it's the truth. When things like this happen in other countries I am saddened, but then turn back to a normal mode. You know that cover of Demi Lovato's Skyscraper and the "Sound of rain without music" .. that's the perfect song to this. The lyrics just hit me right in my stomach.

"Skies are crying,
I am watching,
Catching teardrops 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?

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.

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.

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.

Go run, run, run.
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear.
Yeah, ohh.
Go run, run, run.
Yeah, it's a long way down,
But I am closer to the clouds,
Up here.

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.
Like a skyscraper,
Like a skyscraper."
