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 exchange a walk-on part in the war

For a lead role in a cage?

I wish, 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

I wish you were here

I wish, 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

I wish you were here
