What are you another brick in? Society obviously, but when his father leaves him it's another brick? I'm sure there's some obvious answer??

the Wall as a symbol of the psychic walls people build inside their own heads to isolate themselves from society in general, and the people they love in particular.

ok. sooo. there was this concert i believe in montreal (which i think is the same one where the famous spitting incident happened-if you havent heard, dont ask) this was when the floyd where all big cos of dark side, and they were playing concerts with tens of thousands of people. this is when Roger started developing this feeling that there was like a wall between the audience and the band, cos most of them were there cos of the beer tents and had no clue about the music. so when he'd had enough, he began writing 'the wall'...a half autobiography of himself his past (over-protective mother, father who died at war, best friend who went crazy from drugs, and a rock lifestyle that isolated the band from the fans...etc.) I dont wanna make this long so go and read some interview, books or bios, but basically each brick is another reason for a star (Rog/Pink) to isolate himself so he doesnt get hurt anymore, but in the end the wall breaks down cos the people who love you are gathered around it....yeah it really does make sense, and NO they werent on drugs (that was more in the 60s)

My interpretation is that the 'bricks' are a collection of disappointments (his mother, his wife, the government) that begins to dissociate Pink from society. He is insulating himself, his fears and his pain from others behind the wall. The more pain, shame and fear he encounters, the greater The Wall.

It's a muddled story, isn't it?
I always thought the wall was that barrier between the audience and the performer. That mass of people out there really think they know the person onstage, but they realy don't.

It's a good stoner song. I thought it was about drugs but I'm probably wrong.
