Why Strive Lyrics - Singles - Jeremy And Rebecca

VERSE 1 

Have you ever seen a haughty cloud proud of its position in the sky 

Do mountain ranges tower high to remind us of our lesser size 

Have canyons grand and oceans wide rivaled over bragging rights 

Do land and sea vie for boundary 

Is it foolish to believe they think on better things 

CHORUS 

Why do we strive 

And work so hard to gain the world 

Why must we try to prove our worth 

To rule the earth, why strive 

VERSE 2 

Does Saturn wear her rings to flaunt her wealth around the universe 

Do comets dash the sky to make us stare 

Has morning ever picked a fight with an up-and-coming moonlit night 

And why on earth are there so many stars 

Could it be wrong to think it's just because there are 

CHORUS 

Why do we strive 

And work so hard to gain the world 

Why must we try to prove our worth 

To rule the earth, why strive 

BRIDGE 

Is our planet green with envy 

Of a sun, red with jealousy 

Over stars who burn for so much more 

What's it for, why do we fight 

Clash and collide and agonize 

Why do we strive, Why do we fight 

CHORUS 

Why do we strive 

And work so hard to gain the world 

Why must we try to prove our worth 

To rule the earth 

Why do we strive 

And work so hard to gain the world 

Why must we try to prove our worth 

To rule the earth, why strive 

Why do we strive, why do we fight 

We labor, we labor in vain (repeat) 

We work so hard, we work so hard (repeat)
