“The Final Cut” song by Pink Floyd
Roger Waters’ voice tells the doubts, fears, hopes of a man poised between dreams and concrete reality.
The author passes from the present to the past, from the first to the third person, maintaining a single stream of consciousness divided into different moments in time and space.
The musical structure of the piece accompanies the alternation of opposing moments: hope and despair, victory and defeat.

The Final Cut
Song Lyrics
Original english text
Through the fish-eyed lens
of tear-stained eyes
I can barely define the shape
of this moment in time
And far from flying high
in clear blue skies
I’m spiraling down to the hole
in the ground where I hide.
If you negotiate
the minefield in the drive
And beat the dogs,
and cheat the cold electronic eyes
And if you make it past
the shotguns in the hall,
Dial the combination,
open the priesthole
And if I’m in I’ll tell you
what’s behind the wall.
There’s a kid who had a big hallucination
Making love to girls in magazines.
He wonders if you’re sleeping
with your new found faith.
Could anybody love him
Or is it just a crazy dream?
And if I…show you my dark side
Will you still hold me tonight?
And if I…open my heart to you
Show you my weak side
What would you do?
Would you sell your story to Rolling Stone?
Would you take the children away
And leave me alone?
And smile in reassurance
As you whisper down the phone?
Would you send me packing?
Or would you take me home?
Thought I oughta bare my naked feelings,
Thought I oughta tear the curtain down.
I held the blade in trembling hands
Prepared to make it but,
Just then the phone rang
I never had the nerve to make the final cut.
“Hello? Listen, I think I’ve got it.
Okay, listen it’s a… Ha-Ha!”
…
