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?
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 we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here.
LOL 
Wow!

I've just noticed that I independently discovered all of the chords that appear in the opening section of this song, as I used them in something I wrote a while ago.
I need to come up with some lyrics that have something to say, so I'm looking for some inspiration and here I am going through a few old classics ...
