Wish You Were Here

So, so you think you can tellHeaven from HellBlue skys from painCan you tell a green fieldFrom a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? And did they get you to tradeYour heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? And hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change?And did you exchangeA walk on part in the warFor a lead role in a cage? How I wishHow I wish you were hereWe're just two lost soulsSwimmin' in a fish bowlYear after yearRunning over the same old groundWhat have we found? The same old fearsAnd I wish that you were hereOh, how I wish you were hereHow I wishHow I wish you were hereRunning over the same old groundWhat have we found? The same old fearsAnd I wish that you were here"Thank you. I wish they were here.
