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 exchange   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
