Maybe this song is talking about standing up for one's beliefs, but deep down questioning how well one could do so if the going got tough ("if this starts sinking, would we stand our ground?") It also sounds like the writer is saying that most people are against him since they come out with different beliefs, so he's come to turns that he's an outsider in the world--which Jesus said Christians would be. (since the world hates Me, it will also hate you..)
