This seems to be about the years after high school, when a person has to move into adulthood.
These are the years that scatter the young
The young into doctors and drunks
Kinda a comment on the different paths people take once they get out of high school.
Anywhere in bands
We're gone once the summer hits
Gone to feel the elegance
Of fuel and transit and sleep
And the terror of streets as the rumble strips breathe deep
This seems to be when the band was formed, if I read the song right. He's contrasting his life and his path to some of the other people he knows back home.
