A metaphorical block that someone puts up after living with abuse or being bullied as a child or other such circumstances. Doesn't happen over night but "brick by brick" & leads to loss of friends & family.
"Pink Floyds The Wall" is about a man named Pink who, after: losing his father in WWI, having an overprotective mother, abusive teachers, having his wife cheat on him, and many other things, builds a wall and shuts the world out.
