Cover art for Take It Back lyrics by Pink Floyd

Like mother nature and how we fuck her up but she still keeps us alive. "i push her to the limit to see if she will break" which is exactly what we do.

Honestly, I've never been able to understand how this song relates at all to mother nature. It seems to me like he exchanged some toxic words with his wife/girlfriend/whatever and hopes he can restore the relationship.
