has our conscience shown

has the sweet breeze blown

has all kindness gone

hope still lingers on

i drink myself of newfound 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

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 know

it's the world i know

i drink myself of newfound 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 know

oh it's the world i know

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 know

it's the world i know
