This song is about getting older and realizing that our formative years have passed. It's about the hopeless feeling you get that all the important decisions in your life have been made and there isn't much you can do about it.
"I cheat and lie to check my face"
Great line. We all do this, especially as we get older. We would rather look at ourselves in dim lighting that hides the the blemishes.
"And all at once it gets hard to take"
The realization that we've grown up hits us by surprise.
"I still have dreams, they're not the same"
Our dreams become less and less ambitious.
"I still got time, I still got faith"
Kinda the turning point of the song. We all sometimes get the feeling that we're old and we've missed out. But at some point we can accept the past and the decisions we've made that make us who we are. We start looking at the future again and how we will use the rest of our lives. How we will fulfill our dreams.
