Twenty-Four Letra

Switchfoot

The Beautiful Letdown

Letra de Twenty-Four
Twenty-four oceans, twenty-four skies,
Twenty-four failures in twenty-four tries.
Twenty-four finds me in twenty-fourth place,
With twenty-four dropouts at the end of the day.

(chorus)
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.

Twenty-four reasons to admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses still twenty-four strong.

(chorus)

But see I'm not copping out
Not copping out
Not copping out
When You're raising the dead in me

Oh, I am the second man
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
With all of my symphonies in twenty-four parts
But I want to be one today
Centered and true

I want to see miracles
To see the world change
I wrestled the angel
For more than a name
For more than a feeling
For more than a cause
Singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
You're raising the dead in me
