To me, it has no specific happening (like breaking up or graduating or whatever...) but when I hear it, my feeling is that it points out how cruel life can be, and just do things with us we didn't want to, didn't ask for, and or not happy with at all to happen. But we can't choose how our life goes (yeah, offcourse we can influence it, but I mean the part that we can't influence), we just see it happen and we have to accept it.
So instead of waisting our time with wondering why on earth those bad things had to happen to us, or by complaining ourselves, we just have to accept it, and try to make the best of our lives, don't let it destroy by the bad things that happens. We should keep the good things with us and don't forget them, remember that those worthful memories are what make life worth living, doesn't matter how it goes or how it ends, we ourselves choose on what to put the emphasis, and this lyrics say, put the nice, good memories on the first place, they give you the energy and courage to live on.
That's what I feel, and it's a support to me, eventhough it has a very bitter undertone and it says very well how hard and how raw life can be, it gives me a positive message.
