wish you were here

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 you found?
the same old fears.

wish you were here.

- Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here"

[rainchild] said...

spirit? soul? what are they? the soul is where our feelings lie?
really? hmm...i didn't know that. i always had a painted image of my soul being a scrawny old guy with long white hair, snickering and crackling, "this moron's goin straight to the deepest of the 7 pits of Hades...or worse!"

The lie tht we live in is wht confuses the mind whn things r revealed? Confusing?

[rainchild] said...

we look at the world through filters. filters that have been created by our upbringing, religion, belief systems. when the filters are lifted, the mind has difficulty accepting what we see.

~*tembikai*~ said...

i agree with that .. *sigh..* i need to sleep..

Just dropping by to say Je t'aime Beaucoup.

[rainchild] said...

je t'aime beaucoup aussi, cuz!

i guess i should try this yoga thing too. everyone's talking about. hope i get a discount. but i guess i wouldn't wanna buy the vcd. would be fun if i had an instructor. would even more fun if she was hot! ;)

WANTED: hot young yoga instructor. preferrably with years of experience in dealing with slow and passive youngsters.
