Death Defying Acts lyrics

[Verse 1:]

Never perform a death defying act

And I won't fall

I'm brave, I can save the very small

I'm everything, but I'm nothing at all

[Pre-Chorus:]

You compare my light to the sky

Why do you try to make me better than the divine?

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

[Verse 2:]

I will perform a dead defying miracle

For someone with the chemicals to believe

I'm brave, but I've bravely understated

I can't save you from what you've taken

And leave

[Pre-Chorus:]

You compare our love to the sun

What have you done, is there no limit

To the prizes we've won?

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 am everything that slowly falls

I am everything and I'm nothing at all

I am nothing at all

[Verse 3:]

I will perform a dead defying magic show

For those of you who wanna go someplace else

I'm brave but I can't save you

From the things you won't change for yourself

[Pre-Chorus:]

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
