The lyrics "That to drown in the water is to lie by his side" to me is a reference to baptism. When you are baptised you lie by God's side. Also in the song pantamonie which Guster even says is about christianity they sing about drowning in water. Which is a symbol towards baptism. Even though their Jewish alot of their songs are towards the Christian religion.
