the song for me is about shedding social camouflage and embracing our true nature in order to find true happiness with in us, we all might strive to keep attain material things to try to be cool and gain image in hope of finding acceptance and happiness but in reality we only become slaves to our egos in the long run....
so he feels the answer is in the simple joys of life and never giving up the dream
he then realizes how sad it is to go on living in pretense after having found the light
and he is trying to show his friends still left in darkness the joys in the simplicity of just being your self and living life the way that makes you happy free of social and self inflicted slavery to image and materialism
