heard it on the radio? help please

i heard this song on the radio during my break, and i wrote some of the lyrics down. i can't find it anywhere.. i think i got part of it.

standing near the edge as the tears roll down

anybody know?

What sort of music was it?

Here's A sample of one with similar lyrics:
My Favorite Headache by Geddy Lee...

Amazon.com: My Favorite Headache: Music: Geddy Lee

i don't really remember.. i think it was from a rock station.. (that or soft rock/variety station)

just listened to that clip.. less alice in chains, more smashing pumpkins-esque

Could it be Collective Soul - The World I know

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
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
And I 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
It's the world I know

Yeah, 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

wow, thank you soo much. that is definitely it!!
