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? did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts, hot ashes for trees, hot air for the cool breeze, cold comfort for change? did you exchange a walk on part in the war for the 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 have we found the same old fears? wish you were here.

ah, one of my favorites. But actually you got it a little wrong..."Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange
a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage? "
Do you have Animals? The opening and closing songs Pigs on the Wing Pt 1 & 2 are just as great.
whoops. that's good to know though. that's how my dad always sings it...
