These songs obviously shows change. with the first and the second being complete opposites of each other it obviously shows growth. It is positive change and positive growth. I'm sure it goes deeper than what I am thinking but I kind of relate it back to the album in that, Pink Floyd wanted it to be seen as, In the beginning (of the album) you as a person are weak,scared, and alone. Then by the end after listening to all the songs and what they are saying(lyrics), they play it as you have grown. You are stronger, braver, and not alone.
Or maybe you can even relate it back to life in that, at the beginning your a follower and naive, you believe in everything the(dogs, pigs, sheep)or the government tells you and never think to look below the surface. You never look for the truth, your ignorant. Then, after listening to what they are saying and realizing some truth in it, you have grown. You finally stand up and realize that everything isn't so black and white.
I don't think that trying to figure out a meaning for only THIS song will work. I think that with this album you have to look at it as a whole. You have to think of all the songs as one and try to interpret it from there. At the very least you have to hook it up with Pigs on the wing part 1. but those are just my thoughts.
