I think "Emily" is a younger girl, who is either the sister or like a sister of the author. She doesn't fit in well and is misunderstood. This song is an offering of guidance to her.

This is my favorite part: This next life takes you seriously But you will never let on How you want things to be, This next life can't fill the space that you took But we never let on Just forget where to look
