So, so you think you can tell
heaven from Hell?
Blue skys from pain?
Can you tell a green field
from a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
So do u think we can change
everybody that hates
before it's too late?
So proud to be free
but who can we blame?
Don't be ashamed
Do u think we can change?
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
We don't need
need anymore pain
We just need to remain on the very same page
So much to gain
No more losing a freind
Losing ourselves
We just need ur help
