The World I Know

Has our conscience shown?
 
 Has the sweet breeze blown?
 Has all kindness gone?
 Hope still lingers on
 I drink myself of new-found pity
 Sitting alone in New York City
 And I don't know why
 ♪
 Are we listening?
 ♪
 Hymns of offering
 ♪
 Have we eyes to see?
 
 Love is gathering
 Well all the words that I've been reading
 Have now started the act of bleeding
 Into one, into one
 So I walk up on high
 And I step to the edge
 To see my world below
 
 And I laugh at myself
 While the tears roll down
 'Cause it's the world I have known
 Oh, it's the world I have known

 I drink myself of new-found pity
 Sitting alone in New York City
 And I don't know why
 Don't know why
 So I walk up on high
 And I step to the edge
 To see my world below
 ♪
 And I laugh at myself
 While the tears roll down
 'Cause it's the world I have known
 Oh, it's the world I have known
 Yeah, I walk up on high
 And I step to the edge
 To see my world below
 
 And I laugh at myself
 While the tears roll down
 'Cause it's the world I've known
 Oh, it's the world I have known
