Pink Cloud in the Sky

The sun is shining on this Pink Floyd morning
Another brick in the wall of time
The moon is left screaming outside the Earth's scorching veil
Walls, barriers, veils, how long can they hold
Before the heat burns through
Before mankind wails for mercy, for kindness
Ordinary men against a diamond in a sky of sorrow
Caught between stark realities and eternal hope
News anchors in the background, speaking
Who now only tell lies
How I long for the chorus of a world sublime
Of a difference
Removed from the clutches of our wretched times
