Essentially, this song is about growing up, maturing, changing, wanting to age gracefully (don't we all want that?), sacrificing, and wanting everybody around you to accept it all instead of judging who you are on the pretenses of who you were when you were younger. Especially powerful considering what's happening in the Avett Bros' lives right now.
