"Adrift on your ocean floor I feel weightless, numb, and sore"
When you're under water just floating around it feels surreal, doesn't it? (Gravity has almost no effect and you can just float 'weightless'ly around, and if the water's cold enough it can 'numb' you.) Well with Jon singing "I still can't believe you're gone" it's still surreal to him that this person's gone .
And I think those lines add great imagery and a bit of diversity to the lyrics in this song.
