Twenty-four oceans
Twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures
And twenty-four triesTwenty-four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four drop outs
At the end of the dayLife 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 strongSee, I'm not copping out
Not copping out
Not copping out
When you're raising the dead in meOh, 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 theseTwenty-four voices
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
In twenty-four partsBut I want to be one today
Centered and true
I'm singing 'Spirit
Take me up in arms with you'
You're raising the dead in meOh, 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, yeahI wanna see miracles
To see the world change
Wrestled the angel
For more than a nameFor 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 meTwenty-four oceans
With twenty-four hearts
All of my symphonies
With twenty-four partsLife is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing 'Spirit
Take me up in arms with you'
And you're raising the dead in meI'm not copping out
Not copping out
