twenty-four

24 oceans,
24 skies,
24 failures,
24 tries,
24 finds me in 24th place,
24 drop outs at the end of the day,
Life is not what I thought it was 24 hours ago,
And I'm not who I thought I was 24 ago.

24 reasons to admit that I'm wrong,
With all my excuses still 24 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.

24 voices,
With 24 hearts,
With all of my symphonies,
In 24 parts.

But I want to be one today,
Centered and true.

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 the end.

I want to see miracles, see the world change,
Wrestled the angel, for more than a name,
For more than a feeling, For more than a cause,
And You're raising the dead in these.

24 oceans with 24 hearts,
With all of my symphonies in 24 parts,
Life is not what I thought it was 24 hours ago,
And I'm not copping out,
Not copping out,
Not copping out.
