This song is so beautiful but I'll be honest I find it really hard to interpret what the lyrics mean.
I mean of course you could think the lyrics make it clear that the line 'we belong to the sea' relates to the line 'the world we rent'.
So thinking one way its probably going on about how human kind separate ourselves from each other with racism and conflict and trashes the earth with war and pollution. And saying that the world is not ours and that its like a heaven and when we completely corrupt and destroy it they're be nothing left but the sea which of course has no stability.
then you got the verse;
"
Too many kids in here have hat tops and hammers as well
The cellar door's blown to bits, I keep my cool knowing it well, knowing it well"
Now that could be a metaphor or something the 'hat tops and hammers' but I'm not familiar with that and the being in the lyrics may be. The whole cellar door thing could be that hes hiding in a sort of bomb shelter.
Well thats just my theory, that it has something to do with the war and corruption of man kind destroying the earth.
Personally I just find the music amazing in that song I love it.
