The concept of these lyrics are reminiscent to that of the black lodge mythology in twin peaks and fire walk with me. Only the gifted/damned have the eyes to see the true face of BOB, who is the darkness corrupting all in its path. Cooper had the gift of health sight and mind, while the rest of the flock was confused he saw through visions and dreams what MIKE (the dwarf) showed him, but in the end Cooper was separated from the flock with his soul remaining trapped forever in the black lodge, (worlds apart) left to demise with nothing but despair.
