I like that the watermark in the top left corner is also upside down.
Wait, is that the line? I’ve always heard it “and have we found the same old fears?” Huh
That’s the next lines. “Running over the same old ground, and what have we found? The same old fears.” (If I heard them correctly)
I legite thought the lyrics were in Georgian 🤣🤣🤣
And just because it’s a great song about Syd Barrett:
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 a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? 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 fishbowl, year after year Running over the same old ground, what have we found? The same old fears Wish you were hereI think you missed “doo do do, doodoo doo do doo dah” etc 😉
I thought that shine on you crazy diamond was for Syd. And this one is more generic loss.
Lyrically, the song is often considered to be a direct tribute to Syd Barrett. However, on the documentary The Story of Wish You Were Here, Gilmour and Waters separately describe the original concept that differs from this interpretation. Waters, who mainly wrote the lyrics complementing Gilmour’s initial riff idea and subsequent joint composition, describes the lyrics as being directed at himself. Gilmour, on the other hand, recognises that he never performs the song without remembering Syd Barrett. Waters later adds that the song is nevertheless open to interpretation.

Cool. I also looked up to Shine On You Crazy Diamond and the front page says:
The song is written about the Pink Floyd founder member Syd Barrett, who left in 1968 following mental health problems.
And goes on to mostly talk about Syd. Lots of cool stuff.
Got to stop buying this cheap Australian speakers.
Mmm. Pink Floyd.
That band is just fantastic, that is really what I think!
Oh, by the way, which one’s Pink?
And did we tell you the name of the game, boy? We call it riding the gravy train
He’s outside the wall now.
The Floyd one.
One of my favorite songs by my favorite band. Makes me miss my uncle who raised me, he died of als decades ago. They were his favorite band.
come on here dear boy have a cigar
you’re gonna go far
Won’t you miss me?
Wouldn’t you miss me at all?Yes, I always missed you…
Rest in Peace Roger “Syd” Barrett. One of the greatest muses that most people don’t even know existed
