I Wish You Were Here Lyrics

This song is describing somebody in a coma. The dreamlike sleep, the humming of the machine. It sounds like the narrator is in the coma, calling out to somebody in the living world. Then there's the seven minute period of silence, and the untitled bonus track is from the perspective of the person alive, waiting for the one in the coma to wake up.
