The consensus seems to be this is just about being stoned off one's ass, but whether, Boyd intended it or not, I see deeper meaning. It's about being to intoxicated, not necessarily from drugs, You see it in his later lyrics about being blinded by society and forced to accept what everyone else thinks. This song is about being steeped so low into what's popular that you can't even find yourself or what you stand for, no matter how hard you try. Then again. the song might just be about drugs, but I think Incubus is onto something more than they might have intended originally.
Forgeting the lyrics, I just love the jazz/rock feel of this song, particularly with that guitar riff at the end.
