this song is beautiful. best song to listen to with the windows down on a breezy relaxing day. i feel like the observer is in awe of the spider's beauty and he is epiphinistically realizing how hard spiders work, but yet how it doesnt appear that they work hard. i think when he says "we never felt the sticky thread, the spider web" he is saying that he and whoever he thought he loved never got caught up in things together. but he is at peace with this concept. he is finally realizing how hard his (possibly ex) significant other worked to keep their relationship together. and "so much is said without a sound" may refer to the thoughts he is thinking while observing this. his body language, his state of pure blissful "awe" at the web is more than any language could convey.
