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?

And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a kewl 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 swimming on a fish bowl, year after year.

Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears….

Wish you were here.
