Broken China

Broken China is the second solo and final album by Pink Floyd’s keyboardist Richard Wright – it is a concept album based on Richard’s then wife Mildred’s battle with depression Broken China 02/02/2025 Breaking water ripples beneath the moon, A night of a thousand furry toys scattered across the floor of her mind— foggy fear tugs at the fringes, like a runaway tide, gripping her heart with cold hands. The world feels more and more like unfair ground, her little ark lost in the black cloud, drifting too far from the lighthouse, unable to find safe shores. She is a woman of habit, But tonight, her norm is shattered there is no respite Only the drone of endless waves Of expectations crushing over her. Drowning, Yet straining to reach the rail that never seems to appear. The blue room empty of light, longing for radiant times that never come— she waits, desperately fighting for a breakthrough unsought, weight of hope elusive as a butterfly
