It's about the struggle to realize your dreams and successfully pursue your passions, particularly as you get older and come into more adult responsibilities and obligations. What is your legacy? Who are you if you don't have one? Who do these things matter to? Who do you become if you don't chase these dreams? Who do you become if you do?
There's this very real sense of suddenly being lost. Maybe you have an identity crisis. Maybe you feel the walls closing in on you a bit. You had promise. Now the daylight of responsibility is hitting you, and all you want to do is get back to that land of dreams. Whether to escape or to try again to make them real. But you've got to get through the day first, and if the brutal shock of the morning is any indication, it doesn't look promising.
But the morning is full of promises it can't keep...

"It's primarily about that feeling you get when you wake up one morning and realize... shit. I'm older. I don't have this dreamed-up future in front of me where the sky's the limit. I have responsibilities. I have a family. I have a job and a mortgage. All of these adult things that suddenly make the dream feel far off. Unattainable, even."
