Based on the 1979 double album "The Wall" by Pink Floyd, the film begins in Pink's youth where he is crushed by the love of his mother. Several years later, he is punished by the teachers in school because he is starting to write poems. He slowly begins to build a wall around himself to be protected from the world outside.

And the hammers batter down your door

You better run

run, run, run

Run, run, run, run

Run, run, run, run

You better run all day

and run all night

Keep your dirty feelings deep inside

And if you're taking

your girlfriend out tonight

You'd better park the car

well out of sight

'Cause if they catch you in

the back seat trying to pick her locks

They're gonna send you back to Mother

in a cardboard box

You better run

You cannot reach me now

No matter how you try

Good-bye, cruel world

It's over

Walk on by

Waiting

- To cut out the dead wood

- Waiting

- To weed out the weaklings

- Waiting

To smash in their windows

and kick in their doors

- Waiting

- For the final solution

to strengthen the strain

- Waiting

- To follow the worms

- Would you like to see

- Would you like to see

Britannia rule again

My friend

All you need to do

is follow the worms

Hammer! Hammer!

Hammer! Hammer!

Hammer! Hammer! Hammer!

Stop!

Stop.

I wanna go home

Take off this uniform

and leave the show

But I'm waiting in this cell

Because I have to know

Have I been

Have I been guilty all this time

Good morning, Worm, Your Honor

The crown will plainly show

The prisoner who now stands before you

Was caught red-handed showing feelings

Showing feelings

of an almost human nature

This will not do

Call the schoolmaster

I always said he'd come to no good

In the end, Your Honor

If they'd let me have my way

I could have flayed him into shape

But my hands were tied

The bleeding hearts and artists

Let him get away with murder

Let me hammer him today

Crazy

Toys in the attic

I am crazy

Truly gone fishing

They must have taken my marbles away

Crazy

Toys in the attic

He is crazy

You little sh*t

You're in it now

I hope they throw away the key

You should've talked to me

more often than you did

But no

You had to go your own way

Have you broken

any homes up lately

Just five minutes, Worm, Your Honor

Him and me alone

Babe

Come to Mother, baby

Let me hold you in my arms

M'lud, I never wanted him

to get in any trouble

Why'd he ever have to leave me

Worm, Your Honor

let me take him home

Crazy

Over the rainbow

I'm crazy

Bars in the window

There must have been a door there

in the wall

- When I came in

- Crazy

Over the rainbow

He is crazy

The evidence before the court

is incontrovertible

There 's no need

for the jury to retire

In all my years of judging

I have never heard before

Of someone more deserving

The full penalty of law

The way you made them suffer

Your exquisite wife and mother

Fills me with the urge to defecate

Since, my friend

you have revealed your deepest fear

I sentence you to be exposed

Before your peers

Tear down the wall

Tear down the wall

All alone

Or in two's

The ones who really love you

Walk up and down

Outside the wall

Some hand in hand

Some gathered together in bands

The bleeding hearts

and the artists

Make their stand

And when they've given you their all

Some stagger and fall

After all, it's not easy

Banging your heart

Against some mad bugger's wall

When they've given you their all

Some stagger and fall

After all, it's not easy

Roger Waters

George Roger Waters (born 6 September 1943) is an English songwriter, singer, bassist, and composer. In 1965, he co-founded the progressive rock band Pink Floyd with drummer Nick Mason, keyboardist Richard Wright, and guitarist, singer, and songwriter Syd Barrett. Waters initially served as the bassist, but following the departure of Barrett in 1968, he also became their lyricist, co-lead vocalist, and conceptual leader. Pink Floyd achieved international success with the concept albums The Dark Side of the Moon, Wish You Were Here, Animals, and The Wall. By the early 1980s, they had become one of the most critically acclaimed and commercially successful groups in popular music; by 2013, they had sold more than 250 million albums worldwide. Amid creative differences, Waters left in 1985 and began a legal dispute with the remaining members over their use of the band's name and material. They settled out of court in 1987. Waters' solo work includes the studio albums The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking (1984), Radio K.A.O.S. (1987), Amused to Death (1992), and Is This the Life We Really Want? (2017). In 2005, he released Ça Ira, an opera translated from Étienne and Nadine Roda-Gils' libretto about the French Revolution. In 1990, Waters staged one of the largest rock concerts in history, The Wall – Live in Berlin, with an attendance of 450,000. As a member of Pink Floyd, he was inducted into the U.S. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996 and the UK Music Hall of Fame in 2005. Later that year, he reunited with Pink Floyd bandmates Mason, Wright and David Gilmour for the Live 8 global awareness event, the group's first appearance with Waters since 1981. He has toured extensively as a solo act since 1999; he performed The Dark Side of the Moon in its entirety for his world tour of 2006–2008, and in 2010 began the Wall Live tour, the highest-grossing of all time by a solo artist. more…
