Enter Shikari – System... Lyrics 14 years ago
The initial part of the song seems to refer to the Global Financial Crisis- the house on he edge of the cliff being a metaphor for the risky lending strategies, and the waves being the impending crisis attacking the cliff, and bringing down with it the entire system. The ships are the institutions which could forsee the crisis, but were largely ignored.

Later on in the song, a mention of a child's imagination in persuing through play the careers which a child aspires to.

Ending on the note that fighting against the system is the way to ensure our lives can seek these exciting times.

Enter Shikari – Constellations Lyrics 14 years ago
More specifically I get the impression that the song is about Climate Change, and the consequent need to follow the path towards a sustainable future, valuing our world.
