Twenty-Four (Our Version) - Switchfoot

Lyrics by：Jon Foreman/Tim Foreman

Composed by：Jon Foreman/Tim Foreman

Twenty-four oceans

Twenty-four skies

Twenty-four failures

And twenty-four tries

Twenty-four finds me

In twenty-fourth place

With twenty-four drop outs

At the end of the day

Life is not what I thought it was

Twenty-four hours ago

Still I'm singing spirit

Take me up in arms with you

And I'm not who I thought I was

Twenty-four hours ago

Still I'm singing spirit

Take me up in arms with you

There's twenty-four reasons

To admit that I'm wrong

With all my excuses

Still twenty-four strong

See I'm not copping out

Not copping out

Not copping out

When you're raising the dead in me

Oh oh

I am the second man

Oh oh

I am the second man now

Oh I am the second man now

And you're raising these

Twenty-four voices

With twenty-four hearts

All of my symphonies

In twenty-four parts

But I want to be one today

Centered and true

Yeah

I'm singing spirit take me up in arms with you

You're raising the dead in me

Oh oh

I am the second man

Oh oh

I am the second man now

Oh

I am the second man now

And you're raising the dead in me

Yeah

I want to see miracles

To see the world change

Wrestled the angel for more than a name

For more than a feeling

For more than a 'cause

I'm singing spirit take me up in arms with you

And you're raising the dead in me

Oceans

With twenty-four hearts

All of my symphonies

With twenty-four parts

Life is not what I thought it was

Twenty-four hours ago

Still I'm singing spirit

Take me up in arms with you

Yeah I'm not copping out

Not copping out
