Silence

Intro

(Yes, 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)

Verse

So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field

Chorus

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?

Verse

Did you exchange
A walk-on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?

Chorus

How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fishbowl

Instrumental

Year after year
Running over the same old ground
What have we found?
The same old fears
Wish you were here

Outro
