I think this song is about a life wasted without accomplishment or passion - if he breaks down all that he is, he sees the sum of his life is nothing. If you spend life waiting to pursue your true dreams "all in time will be, later on we'll try", you never understand the joy of how it feels to be something on - literally ON, fulfilling your true purpose.

Beautiful song.
