It’s clearly told from the perspective of a fish being dragged struggling to “the light” by a fisherman, and the light here is not a good thing. “..skin is broken”, I.e, fish hook. I think my favorite line is this: “All this water, I, I don't feel like
I could ever swim to them
Whales in the sky (humans)
I feel they're so close Inside, and yet so far away”
That last line is outlining that all creatures on earth, sentient or otherwise are one and the same, evolutionarily all related at the least. Yet the fish struggles to understand why these humans are doing this to it.
I don’t believe fish are that sentient, yet from the perspective of us all being one and the same, it is quite eerie. Very progressive metal!
