So ... so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell ... blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field ... from a cold steel rail
A smile from a veil ... do you think you can tell
And did they get you to trade ... your heroes for ghosts
Hot ashes for trees ... hot air for a cool breeze
Cold comfort for change ... and did you exchange
A walk on part in the war ... for a lead role in a cage
BREAK
How I wish ... how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl ... year after year
Running over the same old ground .. what have you found ... the same old fears
Wish you were here
