Modest Mouse – 3rd Planet Lyrics 4 years ago
@[sunshinedaydream:32604]

Okay it is everything you said....
But i connect the dots to this in my mind.

The eye in the sky. Is "God" so as being someone whose playing god; like you said, the eye in the sky for the child's creation/creator, being the parents. The childs existence is merely in the decision of the parents indefinitely..besides well mother nature..ie illness etc...... ( ie: "God" cant be stopped) thats the guilt Isaac reflects, he feels he is playing an unfair role of God. And some do get pregnant too young, poor or any other less substantiating environments,
just like the third planet (people of Earth) feels within the mercy of their God's..
It was that moment he felt he had a very high almost devine level of reflection
knowing this is how people must view that eye in the sky "God", because when you "play God" everything is always in your mercy.
And it's not an easy job to have if you have deep feelings of love..the whole; what is right?.
So for the babys sake because Isaac does not have a deep religious belief that there is an afterlife, he hopes for the baby's sake that there is so that he can shake the eyes hand, "God".. and reunite again someday, although he lay doubtful... he understands how it is and within an iota of a picosecond how it is to be God in that spark of moment.

"and it occurred to me that the animals were swimming around in the water IN THE OCEANS OF OUR BODIES AND ANOTHER HAD BEEN FOUND ANOTHER OCEAN ON THE PLANET (given that our blood is just like the atlantic)" It is how the world began, and it is how the world will end.

The universe is shaped exactly like the Earth if you go straight long enough you end up where you were...

His further doubt to an afterlife.
He feels even if he stays on the straight and narrow. praying to a God and being a good boy you just end up where you were..."long walk to the same exact spot"

Parting Of the sensory also picks hints to this up in it's own way to my foresight.
Peoples feelings and their writings normally show congruentcy within themselves. Idk probably too long too but you are the only person I have ever read heard or spoke to, that has the same exact insight of this song just as I do,
This is just my mind's grasp of it
could be incredibly intelligent
or it could be foolishly incited.
