Mother
I have always associated this piece with the relationship between the two Davids - Gilmour and Bowie - and their mothers, rather than with Andy, who wrote it, I suppose, for himself.
Of course, from what they themselves have shared - I sincerely believe - in various documentaries and/or interviews, I find they refer to a rather "complicated" perspective concerning the maternal figure. That many boys take for granted: it’s my mother, damn it!
It’s not like that.
Especially if you are an only child, the smart mom will never be satisfied with you, especially because of your father, who is, like all boys, an inept coward she could have done better than. And it’s never her fault, but yours for being born, willingly or unwillingly.
