The Mollusk Lyrics

I think the meaning of this song is closely related to the other songs of the album, which is to do with the illusive search for truth and higher meaning. When optained in a dreamlike state (like when under the influence of hallucinogenics) it tends to dissolve in the daylight of awake perception. Thus when the mollusk is about to reveal the trinity it ends up looking back to the sea with it's wandering eye (sea=unknown, eye=consciousness)
