ANATHEMA - Wish You Were Here lyrics

rate me

(Pink Floyd Cover)

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 trade

your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees?

Hot air for a cold 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.
