page 84  But, if you prefer, you can guess he is addressing someone else, like a spirit or a ghost that might somehow have been able to rescue his shipwrecked soul, perhaps a beloved girl called Opel who could metaphorically do what was actually done in the days after the Last Island hurricane – save lives – or why not Opal Whitely just because of inspiration from her poetry?: you might have to abandon almost all the theories written so far in these pages, returning to the starting point, but it would be worse to assume that Syd added the words "to find you" just to fill the line and make it sound better.

Other interpretations suggest he is addressing his father, who died when Syd was 15. Unlike Roger Waters, who lost his father in infancy and has written many songs with him in mind, perhaps Syd was adult enough even in his teenage years to accept the concept of death. One of the most traumatic losses in Syd's life was presumably the loss of Pink Floyd: just to make a comparison, a single "tear" between him and his band mates could have been a deeper wound than the "final cut" between Roger Waters and Pink Floyd which led to a second split in 1985. Again it's Nick Mason who makes it clear in 2004, this time implicitly supporting Andrew King's point: It was not a success: Syd showed no signs of improvement, but did display odd bouts of violence. On one night, when a powerful electric storm was raging, the turbulence reflected Syd's inner torment – Juliette's memory is of Syd literally trying to climb the walls. &mdash; Nick Mason
