Yeah I think this is one of their best, most beautiful songs. I think it says self-destructive behaviors are easy compared to actually trying to look into yourself for answers. You can accept your wandering self (Saturn) or you can try to understand and bring sense to it (waking Galileo or flying there and reigning Saturn in). That's just the weird way I see the song. It's up there with Losing My Religion, Monty, and Nightswimming for my favorite by REM.
