I think this song is about a transition of someone hiding who they are to someone shedding that outter layer in order to let people inside. Through out the song, the lyrics hint at this, particulary in the alcohol area: "If your life is so damn comfortable then why do you complain?A reflection in the alcohol you're pouring down the drain." Alcohol represents a numbness that this person has felt(a comfortable state of mind in you will), but in pouring it down the drain he/she is ridding of a normality to them. It's one of the many steps in letting feeling in, happy and sad. When the lyrics sing, "And it all goes to show that you're moving to slow..It will end up changing you," the lyrics can mean that trying to move forward and taking your time can't be done on the same clock. If you take your time in moving on a person can get caught up in the things that surround them; it's easier to get stuck( which is what has happened to the charecter in the song)
I guess what I am trying to prove is that this songs moral is to never let yourself become someone you arent because you are scared of what you could be. When in the wake, the realization of what has happened is much worse than just feeling the realness of everything when as it happens
