Just found these guys on last.fm today. I think this song is about getting over a break up or getting over disappointment or something along those lines. This verse:
"A rooftop crow's nest in a sea swell
Oh, yes, I'm doing so well
A rooftop crow's nest in a sea swell
Oh, yes, I can see so well
And you're nowhere to be seen
And you're nowhere to be seen"
The lookout seems to me to be the singer looking out at the big picture and not getting bogged down, not getting sad or upset over the person/thing who/which is no longer a part of their life. Horizons are hopeful. I think this song is quite hopeful.
