When the walls fall around you is when you begin to find
That the depths you have found have become now too hard to climb
You reconcile your pain in the loneliest refrain
And crawl tied and bound to the one thing you can't leave behind
You can't leave behind, you can't leave behind
And start over again this insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
And start over again and again and again and again
This insurrection
A broken voice without a word to live by
Eyes slammed shut watch the world go by
It should have been way better than this
You can't anticipate the things that you miss
And how long 'til you let it go
Master unreality nothing to show and in the end
Top of the mountain of nowhere
First in the line dying to get back there
You can't get back there
You can't get back there
And start over again this insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
And start over again and again and again and again
This insurrection
And start over again
First in the line to catch a glimpse of the shrine
The closest we ever got to divine
Irrefutable indisputable infallible impossible to deny
Impossible to deny
And start over again
This insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
We start over again, and again and again
This insurrection
We start over again
That the depths you have found have become now too hard to climb
You reconcile your pain in the loneliest refrain
And crawl tied and bound to the one thing you can't leave behind
You can't leave behind, you can't leave behind
And start over again this insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
And start over again and again and again and again
This insurrection
A broken voice without a word to live by
Eyes slammed shut watch the world go by
It should have been way better than this
You can't anticipate the things that you miss
And how long 'til you let it go
Master unreality nothing to show and in the end
Top of the mountain of nowhere
First in the line dying to get back there
You can't get back there
You can't get back there
And start over again this insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
And start over again and again and again and again
This insurrection
And start over again
First in the line to catch a glimpse of the shrine
The closest we ever got to divine
Irrefutable indisputable infallible impossible to deny
Impossible to deny
And start over again
This insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
We start over again, and again and again
This insurrection
We start over again

The "depths you have found" which have "become hard to climb" are probably referring to addiction or something.
If we analyze it from this point of view, the song is about being addicted to some shit (maybe drugs) and realizing how hard it is to recover from that (the depths have become hard to climb). Then the term "insurrection" must represent the struggle against the addiction and everything.
But I think that we can also see this song from a political point of view. I don't really have a clue about what it would mean in that case, but I think it may be about letting yourself overwhelmed by a political system ("Eyes slammed shut watch the world go by"), and finally realize your mistake and try to correct it. In this case, "insurrection" may represent the rebellion against this system.
Also, "And start over again this insurrection
The same reflection, perpetual
And start over again and again and again and again".
this goes in favor of the previous interpretation, as revolutions are cyclic in history.
But so many things in the lyrics aren't linked to any of the to explanations above, that's why I think that what I wrote probably isn't the correct interpretation of the lyrics, meaning that its not what LOG was meaning when they wrote it. So my meaning isn't probably the right meaning but what I mean is that the meanings I just cited are valid meanings and that even if they aren't the true meanings, they represent (from an absolute point of view) valid meanings for the analyzed lyrics.
That's it. Fuck you.
"When the walls fall around you is when you begin to find
That the depths you have found have become now too hard to climb"
I suppose it's about when the things you used to rely on in life "fall around you", and that what you once didn't care of (the depths you have found) are now impossible to reach (have become hard to climb).
"Eyes slammed shut watch the world go by"
I think this one is about people who can't try to be open to the world, and enclose themselves into a comfortable, easy, and simple way to live, by defining only certain valors as important and by rejecting others. In such a situation if "the walls fall around you" (= the life you created yourself collapses), you're left with nothing, and the things you rejected (the depths) are now difficult to reach.
Anyway, that's all I can find, it may be totally wrong and I have no idea what the "insurrection" thing means.
