i reckon this song is about a failed relationship. "were not designed to be evergreens" is him saying they weren't gonna last forever. he questions "am i willing to wait here again? although im hungry and im tired." for me when you break up with someone, you don't sleep and you don't eat so he's asking is he gonna hang on to the fact that they may get back together and feel crappy holding on to what may be a lost cause, or move on. "another set back is another lesson learnt" is saying that at least they can learn from their mistakes. "there's still somthing of worth" means he realises that he is willing to hang on and then "the tree is willing to deliver despite initial years" could mean they get back together. although its hard and sometimes easier to let go, some things are worth holding on to. thats just how ive read it anyway.
