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 So 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 a cage How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls swiming 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 Wish you were here Wish you were here Wish you were here Wish you were here
