The story behind the song

This song expresses the protagonist Pink's realization that his mental wall is complete, signifying his total isolation from society. It's a quiet piece, with the Prophet-5 analog synthesizer providing a D major chord sequence and the bass guitar playing root notes and octaves. This song marks the end of the first half of performances of The Wall, representing the moment the wall is almost fully built, with the final brick being placed as the last word is sung. Playing it, you embody that profound, solitary moment of finality.
