No Picture Dr. Average	#3 by Dr. Richard Benjamin Vannacutt at Nov 13, 2006 at 2:07 PM EST
	I believe "The worms" in this song have something to do with his mental breakdown as said earlier. Each brick in his wall are the problems he faced throughout his life, athers death, overprotective mother etc., and the wall is stopping him from escaping back into the world or what is "sane."

No Picture Chipper Average	#4 by Chipper at Nov 23, 2006 at 9:19 PM EST
	I thought it was the the final solution to staighten strange but I could be wrong. Oh well great song.

No Picture duke Professional	#5 by duke windsor at Dec 5, 2006 at 12:15 PM EST
	is the worms the fat guy on the CD cover for the first disk? he looks to me like he could be the worms or the judge. Also wtf is the thing on the 2nd disk cover? if its something to do with the movie, i dont know want to see it but cant find it.

	Well i think this is sort of.. the final cut from the world. "perfect isolation" but now he fears of the outside from whats different. "to turn on the showers and fire the ovens" is a creepy reminder of the Nazi actions... killing the different, not only building the wall, but also destroying what's beyond it.

No Picture Fuck The World Average	#7 by Fuck The World and Pass The Booze. at Jan 10, 2007 at 5:07 PM EST
	Also, the worms are most certainly not Pink's fans. The worms are his own.

No Picture Timothys Monste Wanna Be	#8 by Timothys Monster at Apr 1, 2007 at 11:59 AM EST
	Hmmm... well when I first saw the title "Waiting for the Worms" I thought it first meant death, like the worms eating away... But then I heard it was metaphorical and I have no idea!
