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 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 wanna 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 Twenty-four 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' And you're raising the dead in me I'm not copping out Not copping out
