Wish You Were Here

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 ex-

change

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

And how we found

The same old

fears

Wish you were

here
