Reflection - T00L

Does anyone know if this song is about maynard reflecting back on a psychadelic trip?
That is sort of what I take from this song.

Might be, might not. Does the coming of the reflection matter?

Not really, no. I was just wondering, because his lyrics seem to speak so well of the coming down aspect of a trip, or a day after reflection back on what happened.

Like Bellylard said: Whatever you choose to pull from it. 
But there is some definite Gnostic influence in the lyrics. There are parts to Reflection that are word-for-word from an ancient Gnostic text about "Sophia". I can't remember which one it is, though.
EDIT: By the way, this is my favorite Tool song.

i cant wait myself. ive alreayd got it reserved and everything at the local record store.
but it seem as if all the usual tool heads arent even excited about it. Basically they think...the best had already been done....the name is retarted and are being extremely sceptical and pesimistis at the album and also fearing that the album is going to be more positive instead of the older negative stuff which was the reason they liked tool in the first place.
all i have to say is wtf....who gives a shit...listen it will be good. tool is probably trying to weed out those types of fans it seems.
