[Intro]
~#**************#~
“And disciplinary remains mercifully”
~#**************#~
“Yes and um, I’m with you, Derek, this star nonsense”
~#**************#~
“Yes, yes”
~#**************#~
“Now which is it?”
~#**************#~
“I am sure of it”
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Break]
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
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?
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
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?
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Break]
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
How I wish, how I wish you were here
~#**************#~
Were just two lost souls swimming in a fishbowl, year after year
~#**************#~
Running over the same old ground, what have we found?
~#**************#~
The same old fears, wish you were here
~#**************#~
[Instrumental Outro]
