This song speaks to me a lot right now. It's likely just generally about growing older, realizing that things are changing, and accepting that.
While I won't say that this was the singer's intention, to me it has a deeper, more personal meaning. I'm currently coming down from years of drug abuse and and have been suffering panic attacks for days now, scared of losing my mind. For me, the decision to stop ties in with my decision to grow up. I've been having therapy for about half a year now and lots of things have been happening, for better and worse, during that time.
The song's positive outlook on growing up and changing is quite comforting to me. While the singer might not have been in the same situation I am in now when he wrote the song, I find comfort in the fact that I'm not the only one having trouble growing up and accepting change.
The part about staying when it's right and leaving when it's time - the story has changed especially speaks to me - the singer is acknowledging that things have changed, but has accepted it.
In the end, pictures will fade over time, but that's alright. Pictures can show beautiful things and portray bad times. Both of those fade with time. And that's a good thing.
