Re: A 15 year olds view. Might stun people.

Album: Wish You Were Here: This album is about after one is dead and other people are mourning for you and telling the world(or family) about your accomplishments and stuff like that.

1. Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part One & Two): I put the 2 songs together to make it easier for me."Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Part One & Two)" is about ones accomplishments in life and what they were. The lyrics once again bring out the main idea.
2. Welcome To The Machine: "Welcome To The Machine" is after you are dead you are going to your grave and the machine would be death. Welcome my son could be ones father welcoming them to the after-life or could be the earth welcoming you. I'm not sure 100% on this one
but i'm sure The Machine is death as it is a never ending machine.
3. Have A Cigar: "Have A Cigar" is a odd song cause I'm not sure how it fits into this. I mean i suppose it could relate to accomplishments again, and all the ones you have done. It could be from a close friends view on how the world is evil and just revolves around "Money".
4. Wish You Were Here: "Wish You Were Here" is after the mourning process, but even though mourning process is "over" people still "Wish You Were Here". Again, I can't really fit the lyrics into the whole life thing because it was written for Syd as this whole album was
but I did manage to pull some deep meanings of life out of it but besides the title, I don't know.
