This song is about feeling trapped. There are tons of songs/books/movies/ladies room conversations about women being trapped by marriage/family. This is from a husband's perspective. That situation definitely goes both ways, men just tend not to discuss it as much - which is what makes song cool. Springsteen has some good songs about this topic too, specifically The River comes to mind.
