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 the war For a lead role in a cage Oh, how I wish you were here How I wish, how I wish you were here Oh, how I wish you were here Did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts Hot ashes for trees And 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 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 me found The same old fears Wish you were here Oh, how I wish you were here How I wish, how I wish you were here Running over the same old ground What have me found The same old fears Wish you were here I wish you were here Thank you
