[Verse 1]

We've built towers to the sky

And pyramids and desert dunes

Broke the speed of sound

Sent a man to the moon

We've roamed around this world

And sailed the seven seas

But we just can't seem to conquer

Our own humanity

[Chorus]

Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy

Bound and chained by insecurity

Time again we've tried and failed

I guess the devil knows us well

Tell me what's it gonna take to set us free

From jealousy

[Verse 2]

Made brother turn on brother

Tore families apart

Stole our trust for one another

And put hatred in our hearts

Caused empires to crumble

Never carin' about the cost

Yet nothin' quite compares

To nailin' Jesus to the cross

[Chorus]

Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy

Bound and chained by insecurity

Time again we've tried and failed

I guess the devil knows us well

Tell me what's it gonna take to set us free

From jealousy

[Bridge]

Of all the things we could've dwelt upon

The one thing we let destroy our happy home

[Chorus]

Jealousy, jealousy, jealousy

Bound and chained by insecurity

Time again we've tried and failed

I guess the devil knows us well

Tell me what's it gonna take to set us free

From jealousy
