Outside the Wall Lyrics

This song to me is the final depection of pink's(the main character in this story) awakening or revelation. He was into his own world so far that he didnt even realize the people around him looking out for his own good. The "artists" and "bleeding hearts" mentioned numerous times on the album were going through hell trying to reach him and protect him when they could have given up and now he finally sees it. It is a wounderful ending and I believe the "isnt this, where we left off?" refers to the begining of this work of art in 'in the flesh?' where he is a child and still has his inocence. i.e. hes outside the wall.

Well tell me what you think, im not saying thats what Roger was thinking but I belive its an insightful opinion and id like to know if anyone agrees with me.

Very insightful!

Yeah. Like he was in limbo since he started building the wall
