this song makes me think of the little dipper (ursa minor) because of the the line "all of my minor sky's last july" since the little dipper is best seen in July/summer.
as far as the meaning, the "hollowed out lift up nation/ all of my minor sky's last July" reminds me of 4th of July, but I think the entire song is just about the feeling of the summer in general and that's only a small part of it. He seems to be remembering the past summer(s) and something must have happened that in recalling its memory makes him somewhat restless and possibly unresolved.
TSaC's lyrics have this tendency to say a lot, but hide exactly what the subject is--he never says it right out plainly and remains cryptic throughout so it's hard to pinpoint exactly what they refer to sometimes.
