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 newfound pity

Sitting alone in New York city

And I don't know why

Are we listening

To 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

So I walk up on high

And step to the edge

To see the world below

And I laugh at myself

While tears roll down

'Cause it's the world I know

Oh it's a world I know

I know... world I know

Ohhh...
