lyrics

Why does a river
flow into the ocean?
What makes a mountain
climb up to the sky?
And why should a flower
grace us with its beauty,
then, wither away and die?

Why do we fight for this?
To crack and break and bruise?
Something we must all
ourselves some day conclude.
There's no alternative.
Now, tell me why you live.
Our blood, our sweat, our tears,
are all we have to give.

Why does an asteroid
smash into a planet?
To what end is a planet
engulfed by its sun?
And why must we all,
someday, fade from the earth,
back to dust?

Why do we fight for this?
There's a reason that we do,
and it's as simple as these
riddles posed to you.
There's no alternative.
This IS why we live!
Our blood, our sweat, our tears,
are all we have to give.
