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 To hymns of offering? Have we eyes to see That 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 As the tears roll down. 'Cause it's the world I know. It's the world I know.

All I have left is my Taylor acoustic and a Jackson V that never sees sunlight. This one I still pick on, in those rare moments I'm alone, and want to relive the early 2000s for a few minutes. Then I set it back down, and time marches on.

That there is always someone looking down at us could be a family member or could just be an old friend looking down on us from heaven. And sometimes when we take that leap of faith and we step to the edge. It's our decision.
