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 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.

Spread Your Wings

They call it a chemical reaction
But they can't hold a candle to the flame.
It's been said I could use a vacation
Money talks, for that I'm not to blame.
Passing by the gardens of sagebrush
Eden ain't got nothing on you, babe.
I can hear you breathing, breathing heavy.
Barefoot, tap, tap, tapping down the stairs.
You're the kind who only dreams of leaving
But never could quite come up with the fare.
Passing by the life unexamined,
No-one quite remembers your name.
Do you see the face in the mirror tonight?
Can you recognize it in such a harsh light?
Don't believe in fairy-tales.
No cabbages, no kings.
If you want to fly, just spread your wings.

My Lady Day

Summer haystack yellow days
Me in my gunmetal grey
How much am I allowed to say
Before I'm branded hoodwink and a liar?
Questioning the innocence
The past betrays the present tense
Someone stands between you and your latest lovestruck alibi.
Oh - don't go away
Oh - by the way, my lady day
My lady day don't go away.
After all these years you have returned to the same places
And your face is fighting madness
Your escape from all the sadness that you earned.
Suddenly tomorrow's passed in memories of broken glass
And freshly poisoned children
Who just drift away, half noticed.
My love for you is limitless.
My memory is flawed
But I recall the devil's claw
That opened up your soul a'bleeding on your stairs.
After all these years you have returned.
And all my thoughts are overheard.
So I'm expected to expect that I will watch you as you burn.
Round and round and round and round
The silken thread the prey is trapped inside the web.
The final turn, the final breath, the final word.
