I definitely agree with the tone of death, but what a beautiful song--and I love the brass instruments that play towards the end of the track; the horns make me feel like a new chapter of the song began, and the same is true with life after death?

I think the "boat" in this song is representative of our bodies, to be surely broken by the rocks below. But, our souls are caught by whatever swoops down to save us "like a bird of prey."

And, I guess we are all lost until we go home...which is heaven in my mind. Hence, "you wait a lifetime to be found"
