I really love how this song's story is about sorrow, but it is told in a way that everyone can relate to. And also, some of the lyrics can also be interpreted in more than one way.
For example: The line "As this strange weather pattern inside me takes hold" always makes me think of my on and off battle with depression.
So, from my perspective and personal experience, I see it as a song that accurately portrays how I feel when I'm depressed and how after each episode, it's almost like a change happened: a transformation. Each time we go through a tough time, even if we don't feel like fighting it anymore because things don't seem like they'll get better, things do improve. However, all the pain and sorrow has changed us. The waves of different, often painful emotions have made us adapt to their presence until they're gone or we have learned to live with them. And, in the end, for better or for worse, we have changed. Beautifully told by the last line of the song
