I believe this song is about time and eternity, childhood/innocense and reality. He makes the point that life is short and it contradicts itself because every second one is living one is also dying. Like a kid grows and meets reality we too realize that as we get older we are almost done. We grow, fall in love, have our hearts broken, love again go to college, form families and grow old only to realize that we cant escape death, and the question of eternity is vivid before you and we cant hide inside, it all dries up and we must face the end, thus our hearts are broken. It's a great song. Amazing.
