Here are some of my favorite all time Switchfoot song Lyrics!*Enjoy :)*
My all time favorite Switchfoot song: *Gone(Album:The Beautiful Letdown(2003)* She told him she'd rather fix her makeup
than try to fix what's going on
But the problem keeps on calling
even with the cell phone gone
She told him that she believes in living
bigger than she's living now
But her world keeps spinning backwards
and upside down
Don't say so long, you're not that far gone.
Don't spin today away, "cause today will soon be
Gone, like yesterday is gone,
Like history is gone
Just trying to prove me wrong and pretend like your immortal
She said, he said, live like no tomorrow
Every day we borrow brings us
one step closer to the edge. Infinity.
Where's your treasure, where's your hope,
if you get the world and lose your soul?
She pretends like she pretends like she's immortal.
Don't say so long, and throw yourself wrong.
This could be your big chance to makeup
Today will soon be
Gone, like yeterday is gone
Like history is gone
The world keeps spinning on
You're going, going,
Gone, like summer break is gone,
Like saturday is gone
Just trying to prove me wrong
and pretend like your immortal.
We are not infinite
We are not permanate
Nothing is immediate
And we pretend like we're immortal.
We're so confident in our accomplishments
Look at our decadence.
Gone, like Frank Sinatra, like Elvis and his mom,
Like AL Pichino's cash, nothing lasts in this life
Gone, my highschool dreams are gone,
my childhood sweets are gone
Life is a day that doesn't last for long.
Life is more than money, time was never money
Time was never cash, life is still more than girls.
Life is more than hundred dollar bills and roto-tom fills,
Life more than fame and rock and roll and thrills,
All the riches of the kings end up in wills
We've got information in the information age
but do we know what life is outside of our conveinent Lexus cages
She said he said live like no tomorrow
every moment that we borrow brings us closer
to a God who's never been short of cash
Hey Bono, I'm glad you asked.
Life is still worth living, life is more than what we are.

Meant to Live*The hit!*
Fumbling his confidence And wond’ring why the world has passed him by Hoping that he’s meant for more than arguments And failed attempts to fly, fly
We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live inside Somewhere we live inside We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live inside
Dreaming about Providence And whether mice or men have second tries Maybe we’ve been livin with our eyes half open Maybe we’re bent and broken, broken
We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live inside Somewhere we live inside We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? Somewhere we live inside
We want more than this world’s got to offer We want more than this world’s got to offer We want more than the wars of our fathers And everything inside screams for second life
We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? We were meant to live for so much more Have we lost ourselves? We were meant to live We were meant to live
24
Verse 124 oceans
24 skies
24 failures
and 24 tries.
24 finds me in 24th place
with 24 dropouts at the end of the day.
Life is not what I thought it was-24 hours ago,
Still I'm singin spirit take me up in arms with you.
And I'm not who I thought I was 24 hours ago,
Still I'm singin-spirit take me up in arms with you.
Its 24 reasons to admit that I'm wrong.
With all my excuses, still 24 strong
You see I'm not coping out, not coping out, not coping out-
when your raisin the dead in me.
Chrous
ooooo a oo oooo a oo
I am the second man
ooooo a oo oooo a oo
I am the second man now
ooooo a oo
I am the second man now - and your raising these...
Verse2
24 voices
With 24 hearts
and all of my symphonies-in 24 parts
But I wanna be today
centered and true
I'm singin spirit take me up in arms with you.
Your rasing the dead in me.
Chrous
ooooo a oo oooo a oo
I am the second man
ooooo a oo oooo a oo
I am the second man now

And your rasing the dead in meeee yeeahhh yeahhhhh
Verse 3
I wanna see miracles
to see the world change
wrestle the angel for more then a name
for more then a feeling
for more then a cause
I'm singin spirit take me up in arms with you. (and your rasing the dead in me)
(In the background is chrous)
24 oceans
With 24 hearts
and all of my symphonies-in 24 parts
Life is not what I thought it was-24 hours ago,
Still I'm singin spirit take me up in arms with you.
Yeah I'm not coping out
not coping out
nahhat coping out

Adding to the Noise
What's it gonna taketo slow us down
to let the silence spin us around?
What's it gonna take
to drop this town?
We've been spinning at the speed of sound.
Stepping out of those convenience stores
what could we want but more more more?
From the third world
to the corporate core
we are a symphony of modern humanity
If we're adding to the noise
turn off this song
If we're adding to the noise
turn off your stereo, radio, video, i dunno
what they're gonna think of next
genetic engineers of the most high tech
A couple new ways
to fall into debt
I'm a nervous wreck but I'll bet
that that T.V. set
tells us what we've wanted to hear
But none of these sound bites
are coming in clear
From the third world to the corporate ear
we are the symphony of modern humanity.
If we're adding to the noise
turn off this song
if we're adding to the noise
turn off your stereo, radio
