*** blood and light, and the marionette

 

 

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?

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 the 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
