What Does Your Soul Look Like (Part 3) Lyrics

I'm asking you to make a small quantum jump with me, to accept one deviant concept...
that our other states of consciousness are as real! as our waking state and that these can be externalized...

We're beyond mass and energy, beyond even energy,
what we're back to is the first thought!
We're beyond mass and energy, beyond even energy,
what we're back to is the first thought!

Very philosophical. He's saying that our dreams, our hallucinations (drug induced or not) are just as real as our waking, concious state that everyone calls reality. But reality is just a composition of senses that are filtered by the human mind. So if all that we know is just a bunch of senses, chemicals flowing through our body, then what is reality really? Reminds me of The Matrix.

He's being funny because he's saying that being conscious isn't being awake/aware which its usually known as being. So its odd that he claims that they are as real as external reality like he's talking about a spiritual realm and a physical realm. The last part about going back to the first part makes little sense and is meant to be poetic unless its somehow religious...
