This is a classic song of restlessness and feeling that "I gotta get out of this place". Very similar to the sentiments expressed in the song "Middletown Dreams" by Rush (Power Windows) or the feelings that Bob Dylan felt growing up in midwest America and feeling like it just wasn't where he was meant to live out all of his days.
There's a connection to the friends and people he's grown up with, but a compelling sense that he's in the wrong setting and needs to make the difficult chioce to break away and fulfill something greater.
