This song relates to Devin's used-to-be dog Happy. While Devin was working on Terria (or slightly before), Happy died. "That bump in your armpit is Cancer/That bump was turbulence" describes how Devin underwent some "turbulence" due to the death of Happy. Devin next states that the world is still spinning despite the death of his furry friend, and that "There is no reason for nostalgia, There is no reason for memory." After all, semi-relating to his song 3 AM, you cannot change the past and dwelling in it can be dangerous.
You can also see the hours Devin used up taking care of the dog, "So far, i've logged so many hours with medications and the dog."
Later in the song, after the awesome chanting section in the middle, you can hear Happy playing with Devin and Tracy. Also, in Dev's second "death metal growl," Happy is howling. Very touching song.
"It's just another mountain" explains how the death of his dog is just another bump in the road, another problem to get over. However, he will get over it, like any other problem.
