Angus & Julia Stone – Death Defying Acts lyrics

[Verse 1]
Now I'll 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

[Pre-Chorus]
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
(Ooohhh aaahhhh)

[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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[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
(Oooohhhh)
