Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Twenty-four oceans
Twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures
In twenty-four tries
[Verse 2]
Twenty-four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four drop outs
At the end of the day
[Verse 3]
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"
[Verse 4]
There's twenty-four reasons
To admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses
Still twenty-four strong
[Verse 5]
See, I'm not copping out
Not copping out
Not copping out
When you're raisin' the dead in me
[Verse 6]
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, 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
[Verse 7]
But I want to be one today
Centered and true
I'm singing, "Spirit, take me up in arms with you"
You're the raising the dead in me
[Verse 8]
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
And you're raising the dead in me
[Verse 9]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I wanna see miracles
To see the world change
Wrestled the angel
For more than a name
[Verse 10]
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
[Verse 11]
Twenty-four oceans
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
With twenty-four parts
[Verse 12]
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still, I'm singing, "Spirit, take me up in arms"
And you're raising the dead in me
[Verse 13]
I'm not copping out
Not copping out
Not
I'm not copping out
