As of most of the songs on this album, and most Dream theater songs for that matter, The song is about a unhealthy psycological, emotional, state. This song can speak to people stuck in a secureless state. It speaks to me.
The song is about Moving on from the past. Accepting the world for what it is and being true to yourself. Taking yourself from the pain, but Accepting it, and embracing it.
In this case, James LaBrie Used the characters wife as the past, Her passing away becoming the pain and her acceptance being his medication.
