Its a metaphorical song about a ship being lost in the darkness of space and then being saved by the light of the sun (Son). Its about someone who felt nothing and was cold and cruel and had their heart broken by the love of Christ. Its very emotional and beautiful. It also sticks to a theme that seems to appear in their other songs that says that faith/hope is not a way of coping with realities that you can't handle but rather that accepting hope is brave.
