This song is about a man who feels he has not value to the world. "...there is no sunken treasure, rumored to be.
Wrapped inside my ribs in a sea black with ink" would seem to refer to the writers feeling that there is nothing good in him despite all his written words. Is this Jeff speaking of himself? This is a deep, brilliant song.
