I think this song is talking about someone, obviously a female, that tries to go through life too fast, but simuntaneously is trying to move forward, but she's stuck in the same rut.

In the intro, he's saying, why are you trying something new when you need to fix something old?

She's obviously struggling with a problem, and no one really knows it but him, because she doesn't show it exteriorally.

She is jealous of all the things that are there, that just can BE, without question, and she wishes it could just all be as simples as the way nature is...
