You shout in your sleep
Perhaps the price was just too steep
Is your conscience at rest
If once put to the test
You awake with a start
To just the beating of your heart
Just one man beneath the sky
Just two ears just two eyes
You set sail across the sea
Of long past thoughts and memories
Childhood's end your fantasies
Merge with harsh realities
And then as the sail is hoist
You find your eyes are growing moist
And all the fears never voiced
Say you have to make the final choice
Who are you and who am I
To say we know the reason why
Some are born some men die
Beneath one infinite sky
There'll be war and there'll be peace
But everything one day will cease
All the iron turned to rust
All the proud men turned to dust
So all things time will mend
So this song will end.

My favorite(favourite for the English) Floyd Tune!

It appears to me that the U.S has put it's conscience to sleep. We as Americans will find human kinds end of childhood. Greed is what shall destroy us unless we realize we are the same energy experiencing itself subjectively.

"Is your conscience addressed, If one's put to the test."

Early Floyd is pure magic. I like all Floyd but for me, nothing is better than post-Syd pre-Dark Side Floyd. At that time they were so creative and didn't seem to care about much except making their music. The result is some of the most unique and beautiful music ever made.
