Well, it may be just me, but I think most of his solo work is about being rejected by Pink Floyd.
'''She took a long cold look at me
and smiled and gazed all over my arm''
Pink Floyd not taking him serious because they saw him as a junkie.
''she loves to see me get down to ground
she hasn't time just to be with me''
PF likes when he's on the stage being a rockstar, but they don't want him anymore, since he's ''going mad'' and refuses to play outside England.
'''her face between all she means to be
to be extreme, just to be extreme''
PF just wants to be sucessful and edgy, they don't really care about the psychodelic movement, they just wants to get ''status''.
''a broken pier on the wavy sea
she wonders why for all she wants to see...
But I got up and I stomped around
and hid the piece where the trees touch the ground...''
Hm, I don't really know about that one.
''The end of truth that lay out the time
spent lazing here on a painting dream
a mile or more in a foreign clime
to see farther inside of me.
And looking high up into the sky
I breathe as the water streams over me..''
It's about taking time to be with himself, and, of course, getting high, trying to forget about them.
@amandavenicio I see the reference to being rejected by Pink Floyd, but I don't know how it is so overlooked that he was rejected by a woman as well, remember Syd was the star of Floyd in 66 -67 then was virtually unknown in the 70's there are so many references to women in his music. I think Syd was hurt by a few other people in his life besides members of Floyd

Or it could a love song.
