Reality is not what it seems to be on the surface. Our hero decides to put his “goggles” on (take drugs? sink into deep meditation? both?) and look beneath the surface of things. What will he find?
The rest of the album chronicles his journey into the deep, and ends with him soaring into the sky!
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Planet earth protects the seas
It is full of life and interests me
And the rivers flow through day and night
With my impressions of given light
Why must what's below be banished to hide
Under a mirror image of the sky?
All life is the power to be free
Let what's kept below your surface be
[Chorus]
I think I should put my goggles on
And see what's lurking underneath
The waters below me, ha-a-a-a-a, ha
I think I should put my goggles on
And see what's lurking underneath
The waters below me, ha-a-a-a-a, ha...
[Verse 2]
Close your eyes and feel it move
As the surface slowly swallows you
Now don't be scared, just follow through
(It flows closer)
Onward, traveller
[Bridge]
Now I've got my goggles on
Let's see what I can see
[Instrumental]
Put your goggles on!
