Theologians

I've wondered mainly about the "I'm going away Where you will look for me Where I'm going you cannot come

No one's ever gonna take my life from me I lay it down A ghost is born A ghost is born A ghost is born " part. I believe the "where I'm going you cannot come" is similar to something Jesus said, so if you follow it logically, Jesus "lays down his life" and "a ghost is born". I'm not familiar with the religious views behind this, but it sounds to me like he's rejecting the idea of resurrection in a physical sense.

However, if he's remaining "himself" and not talking from the perspective of Jesus, it's his (literal or figurative) death, and an otherworldly new "life" that follows-- he's no longer physically real, he's "an ocean [he's] all emotion". Of course the meaning of this depends on the whether he's talking of a literal or figurative death. I believe it's a figurative death, since the line "No one's ever gonna take my life from me, I lay it down" suggests that a literal death did not occur and instead he "lay[s] it down", perhaps meaning an escape from some situation. However, the line "Where I'm going you cannot come" may mean death, but I think it's some sort of transcendance, possibly through drugs, but more likely it's some escapist mental state where he goes to get away from the hardship of reality, and in this state he feels connected to the world, that he has expanded beyond himself to become "an ocean", that he has expanded beyond physical reality and entered the mental or spiritual world to be "all emotion".

anyways that's my take on it. I think I might be way off base though.
