  • Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here (1975)
    So, so you think you can tell
    Heaven from Hell,
    Blue skys 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 heros 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.

      This resonates with me in reality, I'm the only fish in the bowl... I'm here in small town India, Noone to share my joys, sorrows, music culture arts with... They just can't appreciate it...the people in my vicinity are all from a very different culture, and I can't go to a big city like Mumbai where i'll find like minded people... To have a beer and pull an all nighters listening to rock n roll

    I never thought I would be writing one of these tear jerkers but here we are.
    My wife and I both loved this song deeply but for very different reasons.
    The lines about "did you exchange a walk on part in the war..." spoke to why I got so involved in Covid nursing from day one. I told someone, "It wasn't what I lived for but it was something I trained for."
    My soulmate however identified with the "two lost souls living in a fish bowl..." Her chronic pain> debility> depression led to her sudden demise.
    She was buried today. She is now in the arms of Jesus, her Daddy and grandmother. She is out of pain, free of her anxiety and now has the answers to all the questions that vexed her most of her life. She is the Love of my life and will be until we are together again.

    My grandmother was dying of lung cancer and in her final days my father and I brought her home from the hospital so she could die peacefully in her own home. On the car ride back from the hospital she told me to turn on the radio so that she could "hear music one last time", and this song came on the radio. She would die later that evening, some songs are just more important than words man

Finally 9 years later I can say the pain has subsided but I still miss him a lot

These times are tougher, as you have less and less of a change to be yourself, and end up being what others want you to be, thinking what others want you to think, and speaking what others want you to speak. Be yourself, follow your instinct. Trust yourself. If you feel you don't fit, don't worry, that's actually a good thing. It's easy just to be what they expect you to be, the brave move, is to truly be you. Whenever you feel you are losing it, remember your dad.

      I agree with this 110%... I'd give almost anything to go back to save her.. if I'd have just went in her room to say goodnight like I always did... but not that night.. she loved Pink Floyd. Her mom and step-dad were famous rock n roll photographers and boy, the life she had was astonishing! The things people dream of doing were day to day normal life for her... I was so lucky to have her in my life. Either I lived with her or she with me all my 33 years of life (I'm now 34 but she passed while I was 33, Oct 1st 2022). I completely understand what you mean. I'm sorry for your loss too, darlin. I hope you find peace and have support. Your parent(s) would not want you to stay heartbroken and sad. They always wanted you to be happy, healthy and do well for yourself, I just KNOW it. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

And when I talk to the people outside even my closest friends sometimes, I can't recognize them. And I don't even notice that I'm staring at them or not?? So they need to shout at me or snap their fingers at my eyeballs! It's hard

      KauBïf I discovered first, and I had to hide from my mom, and that was the hard part. I know it shouldn't change, but it does. He cheated twice, and the first time he told me he would never do it again. When my mum discovered they shouted at each other for hours, they didn't care who was listening, and I was. So it doesn't matter if he didn't cheated on me. It's not just the same, the trust I had on him is gone
