The Island Lyrics (c) by Fox Lee 1996/8/2000 (http://foxlee.arts-eclectic.com) Verse 1 Why are we living if we'll only die? Why are we trying so hard? Why do we fight for what's not even ours? Why can't we understand? Verse 2 Why do we blindly just walk on ahead? It just seems we've passed it all by, Isn't there something we've been missing all along That's right in front of our eyes, Chorus 1 Look around you, this is where it's gotten us, Verse 3 I don't need your money or your love, I have all I need here, The sun turns my eyes to what I need to see, And the wind says what I need to hear, Chorus 2 Look around you, this is where it's gotten us, A walk ahead that always seems in vain, Are you so sure you want to carry on, When all it brings to us is pain, Ending Why are we living if we'll only die?
