Switchfoot - 24 Lyrics

Love switchfoot

I love switchfoot love

I used to listen to this album on tape on my way to elementary school. Still know every word by heart. Timeless classic!

Today is my 24th birthday. Wish me luck.

Today I turn 24 and this is the first song I thought about when I woke up

In Myrtle Beach, SC.

I herd this live.

3 hours before I turn 24.. They said 24 is the middle ground of the young adult well I'll guess this gonna be another tought one.. But no matter what I'm gonna move forward. There's a lot of battles coming my way.. God please remind me that I'm stronger more than I know. This is my little prayer, sorry I hate you sometimes but at the end of the day I'll surrender to YOU.

I just turned 24 yesterday. It's so powerful.

Switchfoot and Their Fantastic Traveling Music Show is the current tour following album Native Tongues. They are playing Twenty Four. Just saw show two of the tour in Cedar Rapids, IA tonight.

01/10/2019🎸

Escuto essa música desde os 16, hoje estou fazendo 24, dia 24 de setembro! Sempre imaginei esse dia chegar e eu ouvindo essa música, e assim estou logo pela manhã! Kkkk acho que vou ouvi la o dia todo! 😂

It's my 24th..

Damn I just turned 24 this year and this song is still amazing.

Last few minutes of being 24 whoa time fly's, but at least i will always have switchfoot

❤ best.

I just turned 24 today... saw this song on a reddit thread
Pleasantly surprised with this song

My little brother is 17 years old, and he is a big fan of Switchfoot as me, i'm proud, he has listening Switchfoot since he's 5 years old

I'm gonna remain 24 years old for another half hour. And then I will turn 25 right at midnight

Why is switchfoot so amazing?💗🙌🏻

Who s listening in '19?

Still one of my favorites... 2019 and still love it

I first heard this song when I was 18. I'm going to turn 24 in 4 days. I intend to cover this song and upload it to my IG account. Maybe even begin my YT channel with this cover.
Switchfoot has been a quintessential part of my life so far. ♥️
I hope I get to meet them someday. 😌

i am 24 of age and so it hard to me rightnow

Turned 24 today. This is a song that is full of feelings.

I get such a strong sensation when he says "I want to see miracles"
It reaches a deep longing in my soul to see a positive change so undeniable, so powerful I can't help but be forever transformed into the person I want to be, the person I could be. But I guess the effort of becoming that man is too important to bypass. Oh well, I've still got the song :)

mmmmm I love this song

2019 anyone? 😊😊

Played this song at my best friends funeral.... I know you are HEAVEN Laura ....Thank you Jon for your heart!

I turned 24 today

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, 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
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
All of my symphonies with twenty-four parts
(Oh, oh, I am the second man now)
(And you're raising the dead in me)
Life is not what I thought it was twenty-four hours ago
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
Still I'm singing 'Spirit, take me up in arms with You'
(Oh, oh, I am the second man now)
(And you're raising the dead in me)
I'm not copping out
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
Not copping out
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)
Not, not copping out
(Oh, oh, I am the second man)

14 when this came out. 24 now. Song of the year for me? I think yes.

Still watching in 2019

2019 i love switchfoot 🎧😍

I actually heard this for the first time when I was 23, back then I didn't even know what this song talk about. I kind of find it later..say around my thirties 😅

Twenty-Four


[Verse 1]
Twenty-four oceans
Twenty-four skies
Twenty-four failures
And twenty-four tries
Twenty-four finds me
In twenty-fourth place
With twenty-four dropouts
At the end of the day
Life is not what I thought it was
Twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing

[Pre-Chorus]
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 2]
There's Twenty-four reasons
To admit that I'm wrong
With all my excuses
Still twenty-four strong

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

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, I am the second man
Oh, oh, I am the second man now
Oh, I am the second man now

[Verse 3]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
You're raising the dead in me

[Chorus]
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, yeah
[Verse 4]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You
And You're raising the dead in me

[Verse 3]
And you're raising these twenty-four voices
With twenty-four hearts
And all of my symphonies in twenty-four parts

[Outro]
Life is not what I thought it was twenty-four hours ago
Still I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms
I'm not copping out
I'm not copping out
I'm not copping out

Anyone 31st December, 2018???

The Spirit took my wife up in His arms 10 months ago. I am learning more and more to be the second man now.

God Bless you!! So sorry for your loss but what a perfect place she's in. No pain, free, happy and loved perfectly. I hate to say it but I'm so ready. Prayers for peace that surpasses all understanding. 🙏🔥🙏

speechless...

Hello 24! I hope you'll be more gentle than ''nobody likes you when you're 23''! :)

Did Christina Perri rip this off? Her song 'A Thousand Years' sounds really, really similar.

Esta canción tiene un gran significado para mí. Es muy existencialista, por cierto. Un poema!! Somos lo que decimos ser? que haces si te das cuenta que dentro de ti hay muchas luchas y a veces no eres quien creías ser? Que haces si hay una lucha en tu interior, muchas voces, muchas dudas...pero no quieres ser hipócrita contigo mismo, ni con Dios, ni con los demás, pero tampoco quieres fingir... Entonces, solo puedes pedirle a Jesus que te levante, que levante lo muerto que hay dentro de ti, y te haga una nueva persona. Esto es lo que esta canción significa para mí. Y recientemente, con más fuerza aun-

I love this song so much it speaks to my soul...💞

Too much greatness!👍

this song saved my life is more to do with it but I can tell you that life is worth living

Romeo East Coast Isle of Manhattan awesome Romeo of East Coast that's actually very beautiful that's actually amazing and you said it so whatever that's beautiful

Song has blessed me in ways i cannot begin to say. it helped me as a young man growing up, and it has time again always calmed me down in really tough and perilous times. i am older now, in my mid twenties, and looking back i am grateful i found this song

in the year I turned 24 I had my daughter, stopped talking to my mom, moved in with my bf, and began a new life. when I was 13 and loved this song it just made me emotional bur not for a specific reason. now at 27 I realize this had a place

Dale had a message life is worth living

thank you Dale

I never knew him a friend told me about him and he saved me. it's a true story there is a life after we die., I call him my friend because he saved me. he pushed me on my chest and I woke up and I was so scared I turned on my TV and my lights on and his mother was talking about he killed himself. Dale did that the night before I put a gun in my mouth and I pulled the trigger. Dale saved me. afterwards I pointed the gun at the wall and it hit the wall it wasn't my time.

thank you Dale

he killed himself to this song

he is still alive..just released "I wont let you go"

I want to tell you I had a friend who killed himself he woke me up when I wanted to die I saw him in my room when he woke me up I was so scared I turn on my television and all the lights on and on the television his mother was talking about how he killed himself. I received the message from him he told me life is worth living. she knew how much I wanted to kill myself and he saved me there is life after death

It's just gone midnight and it's now my 24th birthday. While this song has been on my mind the last few days as a gimmick, listening to it properly it is resonating with me in new ways. Thanks for writing this, Switchfoot.

Loved it <3 2017 ans still listening <3

Just a minute until I turn 25. What a ride it has been so far....

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'
I'm not copping out
Not copping out

Gracias. :D
