Wish You Were Here
So...so you think you can tell?
Blue skies from pain?
Can you tell a green field
From a cold, steel rail?
A smile of 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
Yeah, had to sensor that second bit of lyrics. =P I swear, this has got to be my third favorite Pink Floyd song. It's just too awesome. I'm learning to play it on the guitar, but it's quite difficult. My brother basically knows the whole beginning of the song up to the first lyrics, so he's teaching me a bit of it. Every time I hear and of their music, I can only think that Pink Floyd is awesome. ^^
EDIT: Also, sorry Shine. Didn't realize that would count still - wasn't trying to bypass it. Either way, I just got rid of the line entirely if that helps out a little bit. =]
