When I was younger I thought this song was about an acid trip. But it's not. Then again, when I was younger, I thought every song was about LSD.
Anyhow, this song ties in nicely with the Zen Arcade concept of a child running away from home and realizing that its not any better. The chartered trip away is an illusion. No matter where you are - the illusion is that a better place is elsewhere. Go travel my friend.
