Cover art for The Gaping Lotus Experience lyrics by Tool

This song is a humorous little extra added to the end of Opiate, to leave no doubt that this band uses mind expanding drugs. Members of the band have been quoted saying they use LSD and DMT, The Eggs Of Satan is a Hash brownie recipe, the text in Aenima is describing Ketamine, a dissociate anaesthetic, also a hallucinogen. Timothy Leary is also mentioned in the text, the king of LSD who formed the first psychedelic religion called the League for Spiritual Development, abbreviated, LSD. If anyone watches any of Tools videos, they are all psychedelic, and are meant to be watched by people under the influence of psychedelics. Third Eye is a term psychedelic users can understand as these drugs pry open your third eye and allow you to see reality and life in a different perspective. Anyone refuting that Tool does not use psychedelic drugs has never used psychedelic drugs because if you had there would be no doubt your mind that Tool uses and creates music for people who are on hallucinogens. Listen to the beginning of Third Eye. Bill Hicks talks about drugs and LSD to Pink Floyd-inspired heartbeats in the background. Pink Floyd is one of the most famous acid-rock bands. Listen to Lateralus and Aenima on LSD, it will be amazingly brilliant. Danney Carey is one of the most innovative influential percussionists out there. Keep it up Tool!
