Death Defying Acts Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I will perform a death defying act
And I won't fall
I am brave, I can save the very small
I am everything
But I'm nothing at all

You compare my light to the sky
Why do you try to make me
Better than the divine?
It isn't the same
Don't give it a name
Let me remain
Let me remain

[Chorus]
I'm everything I've ever been
I'm everything I've ever seen
I'm everything that slowly falls
I'm everything and I'm nothing at all

(Ooh... ooh... a-a-ah...)

[Verse 2]
I will perform a death-defying miracle
For someone with the chemicals to believe
I am brave, but I've gravely understated
I can't save you from what you've taken and leave

You compare our love to the sun
What have you done?
There's a limit to the prizes we've won
It isn't the same
Don't give it a name
Let me remain
Let me remain

[Chorus]
I am everything I have ever been
I am everything I've ever seen
I'm everything that slowly falls
I'm everything and I'm nothing at all
I'm nothing at all

[Verse 3]
I will perform a death-defying magic show
For those of you that want to go someplace else
I'm brave, but I can't save you
From the things you won't change for yourself

You compare my light to the moon
What are you doing?
What are you doing?
It isn't the same
Don't give it a name
Let me remain
Let me remain

[Chorus]
I am everything I have ever been
I am everything I have ever seen
I am everything that slowly falls
I am everything and I am nothing at all
I am nothing at all

(Ooh... ooh... ooh...)
