This song is about needing to embrace the dark times in life as well as the good times. Everything that happens to you as a person is meant to happen. And once you accept that then maybe life becomes more enjoyable, or calmer.
There is a Japanese art form called Kintsugi. This is where bits of pottery are broken up and then put back together again, but with gold. The last refrain "You've got to find yourself alone" essentially details this; that everyone at some point needs to be broken up to realise that once you're put back together again, you can be better - and life goes on.
