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 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
