Has our conscience shown?
Has the sweet breeze blown?
Has all the 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.
The lyrics THE WORLD I KNOW of COLLECTIVE SOUL is also present in the album Collective soul (1995)
Collective Soul è un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi in Georgia nel 1989. Il loro genere musicale si colloca principalmente nell'alternativo rock, con influenze di hard rock e post-grunge. Il successo nazionale arriva nel 1994 con l'album d'esordio *Hints, Allegations, and Things Left Unsaid*, ripubblicato da Atlantic Records dopo un discreto successo indipendente. L'album raggiunge il platino grazie al singolo «Shine», che scala la classifica Mainstream Rock. Nel 1995 esce l'omonimo album *Collective Soul*, con successi come «December», «The World I Know» e «Where the River Flows». Questo secondo lavoro vende oltre tre milioni di copie, ma una disputa legale con la casa discografica per questioni di royalties mette a dura prova il gruppo. La situazione viene risolta fuori dal tribunale. Collective Soul continua ad incidere album fino al 2019, mantenendo un seguito fedele e pubblicando brani come «Run», «Gel», e «Tremble for My Beloved».
