Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
A snapshot in the family album
Daddy, what else did you leave for me?

Daddy, what'd ya leave behind for me?
All in all it was just a brick in the wall
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall

    Dear God!! The Wall is about Waters, even if he doesn't admit it officially. Water's father left to go to war and was killed there, this "put another brick in his Wall". His Wall is his escapism and lack of ability to confront those around him and his hatred of all the things that have caused him to isolate himself.
