So, so you think you can tell   Heaven from Hell, blue sky 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? Did you exchange   A walk on part in the war, for a lead-role in a cage?      How I wish, how I wish you were here   We're just two lost souls living in a fish bowl   Year after year, going over the same old ground   What have you found, the same old fears   Wish you were here      Oh, wish you were here, oh, wish you were here   Oh, wish you were here, oh, wish you were here
