What is the meaning of the song 1979 by smashing pumpkins?

The theme of the song is youth.

The youths in the story of the song are full of life and invincible and full of hope--they'll never see an end to their youth.

These teens have no real aim in life and an uncertain future.

Billy Corgan has said that the ideal for the song came to him while sitting at a red light on a cold stormy Chicago day.
