Wish you were here

-Pink Floyd

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 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 swimming 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.


(So, I'm not really sure why I wanted to post the lyrics to this, I just did. Heard it on the radio when my alarm went off today and just felt like posting it. I don't really know if it caused me to think of anyone in particular or if I was just feeling that it would be nice to have someone there with me. I like this song and hearing it today reminded me that I can play it. Maybe I'll pull out my guitar in the near future and just see what I can remember. Anyway, that's all for now.)
