First of all, The Eternal Return has some really deep themes.
To me, this song hits hard on existence and the questions brought up about God and religion in general.
"Meet me beyond the emptiness And only then will you see All that you have in this world Is all that you need"
This is a message telling us that only when you take a true objective view of reality, you will realize you don't need a deity giving you purpose.
Throughout the song, the tides are personified, and also shown to be inevitable, reliable occurences. However, at the end of the song, this is said:
"If you think you can predict it We you fool and you fake Like it's all been arranged"
This tells us a moment of clarity, finally giving us a 'truth.' The tides are not a reliable occurence at all.
The tides are, in a sense, people with faith.
