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

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 e change

a walk on part in a war

for a lead role in a cage

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 we found

the same old fears

wish you were here
