@Honenhelm Haha I know what you mean, I like the way he sings capricorn!
My best interpretation of the song... It's about leaving the naysayers and complacent people and that kind of a lifestyle behind, and taking on the adventures that may at one point had been only talked about and nothing more (The people with their model ships wishing they were sailing around being old friends/naysayers). It's about turning thoughts and desires into action and doing something great, experiencing something that maybe be difficult as it is rewarding.
The "we look them right in to their octopi eyes" part is an indication that they are experiencing events first hand and in person that many people may only read about. I've never seen an octopus in person!
I think the song is a metaphor for touring, writing, performing and above all perfecting a musical style that is original and unique, despite what the mainstream and many people surrounding the project may have thought, and reaching a substantial level of popularity despite a very independent sound. Just a hunch. I could be way off.
