The song is about finding meaning in one's life and appreciating the little things. The narrator, who I'm sure is Dar herself, sees how her parents truly understand one another and are at peace with the world. She sees her friends, who know that they are lucky and blessed. Then she sees someone who has been struggling through a long night. At the break of dawn, with the garbage trucks bustling through their rounds, that person has a breakthrough: "this world can't be saved, only discovered". That means that we can't hold all of the world's problems on our shoulders, but keep an open eye out for what we can learn.
