Collective Soul - The World I Know - is a sad one indeed

Collective Soul - The World I Know

Collective Soul is one of those bands that are really hard to forget and you can enjoy listening to them in any part of your life. The song was released in 1995 and it featured an amazing music video that exposes the daily decisions a person must make and the reasons for them. The song peaked at number 19 on the Billboard Hot 100 Chart and stayed for a few weeks on the Billboard Hot Mainstream Rock tracks charts. Be sure to have a good time while listening to this one.

Lyrics

"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?
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 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.
