I'm pretty sure it's about a guy who has a gf or wife, and is about to breaking up with them and the song is to his mistress. "She'll be gone soon, you can have me for yourself". As well as "25 and yearning for a ticket out" talking about the relationship he has at the moment. And then "dreams burn but in ashes are gold" meaning the dreams he once had with the girl he is breaking up with are being burnt but it means there will be gold in it for his mistress!
