Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?
Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold, when I'm tired
There's a ghost on the horizon (there's a ghost, there's a ghost)
When I, go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night? (How can I? How can I? How can I?)
How will I rest my head?
Oh, I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there
There's a man on the horizon (there's a man, there's a man, there's a man)
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight (if I fall, if I fall, if I fall)
Will I rest my head?
So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And godsend I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed
Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?
Hope that someone
Will set my heart free
Nice to hold, when I'm tired
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?
Hope there's someone
Who'll set my heart free
Nice to hold, when I'm tired
There's a ghost on the horizon (there's a ghost, there's a ghost)
When I, go to bed
How can I fall asleep at night? (How can I? How can I? How can I?)
How will I rest my head?
Oh, I'm scared of the middle place
Between light and nowhere
I don't want to be the one
Left in there, left in there
There's a man on the horizon (there's a man, there's a man, there's a man)
Wish that I'd go to bed
If I fall to his feet tonight (if I fall, if I fall, if I fall)
Will I rest my head?
So here's hoping I will not drown
Or paralyze in light
And godsend I don't want to go
To the seal's watershed
Hope there's someone
Who'll take care of me
When I die, will I go?
Hope that someone
Will set my heart free
Nice to hold, when I'm tired

the seals watershed is pretty simple imagery and goes along with the rest of the song about not wanting to be left behind. The seal is leaking and shedding water. Most of the water goes along as it should, past the seal and on into whatever (next life, etc). He's saying he doesn't want to be shed out alone while everyone else continues along.
