It's about losing people -probably parents or other close family members, as the band members are of an age where this happens and the opening verse is "These walls; have eyes; Rows of photographs; And faces like mine " - through dementia/altzeimers and that sort of thing.
It's a sad song but not a hopeless one: it's more about fond memories and moving on. My favourite verse is "I will try to connect; All the pieces you've left; I will carry it on; And let you forget;"

I should also point out that the title of the song is a subversion of the band's name. I think that demonstrates the importance of this song.
