I think this song is about how your hopes and dreams pull at you. You try to be happy with what you have. You try to be simple and not ask for much. But the all the things that you want, mainly the desire to be loved and understood and feel important, they go to your head, you can't escape them, and when they go unfulfilled it weighs on your soul.
