to me this song has always ment something interviening in your life (especially someone) then falling into depression, only to be helped up again and taking it in your stride (let is rain rain rain, bring my happy back again). "eating the lotus" symbolizes never wanting to leave (odyseiuss) that happy place you return to. i know im probably completely wrong but thats just what i have always thought. love this song so much
