This song is about having the courage to move on with your life. Whether you had a horrible experience, a relationship that ended badly, or whatever the case may be, this song is about knowing you can wake up in the morning to a new day and start over. Even though you may always remember who or what hurt you in the past, you will heal over time. That "Awakening" is when you realize that you can't change what happened, but you can move on from it and "pull the curtain up again and get on with this show."
