As this song has no lyrics, it merely sets the mood for the ATUM story. As Corgan describes it, the image is that we (the listener/viewer) see a small, yet beautifully designed spaceship floating in space above Earth. At this point you don't know what it is. The scene then cuts back down to Earth, where we discover it is full of mayhem, mass riots, "descent and unhappiness, and a lot of strife."<ref name=":0" /> Next we float back to space, zooming past the spacecraft we saw earlier and on to the "[[W:Far side of the Moon|dark side of the moon]]" (an intentional [[W:Pink Floyd|Pink Floyd]] reference), where we see pyramids and crystal towers. At this point we are riddled with the sense that the world and everything we know about it isn't as real as we have been led to believe. We then float past [[W:Mars|Mars]] and we see the face on Mars as well as more pyramids. Finally, we float toward the Sun and realize it's not the sun we thought it was.<ref name=":0" /> This lays the ground for the rest of the story that is to follow.
