they flutter behind you your possible pasts
some brighteyed and crazy some frightened and lost
a warning to anyone still in command
of their possible future to take care
in derilict sidings the poppies entwine
with cattle trucks lying in wait for the next time
do you remember me? how we used to be?
do you thing we should be closer?
she stood in the doorway the ghost of a smile
haunting her face like a cheap hotel sign
her cold eyes imploring the men in their macs
for the gold in their bags or the knives in their backs
stepping up boldly one put out his hand
he said, "i was just a child then now i'm only a man"
do you remember me? how we used to be?
do you thing we should be closer?
by the cold and religious we were taken in hand
shown how to feel good and told to feel bad
tongue tied and terrified we learned how to pray
now our feelings run deep and cold as the clay
and strung out behind us the banners and flags
of our possible pasts lie in tatters and rags
do you remember me? how we used to be?
do you thing we should be closer?
Pink Floyd were a British rock band formed in London in 1965 by Syd Barrett (vocalist and guitarist), Roger Waters (bassist), Nick Mason (drummer) and Richard Wright (keyboardist). In January 1968, David Gilmour (guitarist and vocalist) joined the quartet, eventually replacing Barrett who became increasingly alienated due to drug use. Considered one of the most influential rock bands of all time, Pink Floyd explored themes of psychedelia, social alienation, war, and politics in their music. Their concept albums, such as *The Dark Side of the Moon* (1973) and *Wish You Were Here* (1975), became instant classics, selling millions of copies worldwide. Some of their most famous songs include *Another Brick in the Wall*, *Comfortably Numb* and *Money*. After Waters' departure in 1985, the band continued to record and perform with Gilmour at the helm.
