Actually, never mind. Now that I think about it, I think it's a story about Jesus or God or related with Jesus indeed. He used to own the World, seas would rise when he gave the word. This recalls when Moses separated the waters of the Red Sea during the Exodus of the Jews from Egypt. I thought maybe he doesn't own the World anymore considering today's society hasn't seen God as a center of life or important at all since a couple of centuries or the Middle Ages. The fact that his castles stand upon pillars of sand and salt recall that in a parabole of Jesus, he explained how those who don't follow him will be building their houses upon sand and thus will fall from instability. Jesus travelled about 3 or 4 times to Jerusalem in his life, at least his public one. The region of Israel was a Roman province at the times of Jesus. His missionaries in a foreign field make me think of the apostles and his disciples that were called upon to travel the World and spread his teachings, A. K. A. Missionaries. In other lyrics, it's "once you go, there was never, never an honest word", which could mean that after Jesus ascended into Heaven, humanity once again started to deteriorate. People couldn't believe he had become such an important figure, A. K. A. Messiah. So a group of Jews called the Zelots, which were Revolutionaries against the Romans and the fact they had invaded their land, wanted him dead (my head on a silver plate), so they crucified him. A puppet could mean he's God's son and was sent to Earth by him, so he's technically a "puppet" of God. I'm thinking Saint Peter won't call his name since he is Jesus, God's son, he doesn't need Saint Peter's permission to enter Heaven. Either way, I like the song and it can be interpreted different ways and it's a great piece of music!
