I'm staring at the darkness
looking over the edge and wondering...

Do they feel humility?
Do they feel regret?
Do they feel pity?
Do they feel guilt?
Do they feel gratitude?

Do they attempt atonement?
Do they love?
Do they hate?

All these things to wonder,
and all that I want to know is...

Do they feel regret?
