Caught in the tide of our own divide
Our moment to make a stand
We're all in the fight for a future bright
It's burning inside our hands
Fell on a line on our own this time
We failed the forgotten man

Your reality is our insanity
Our humanity is tearing at the seams

Ah, never going back, never going back now
Ah, never gonna back, never gonna back down

Blinded by faith and devotion
Shade the fire inside our hearts
Ties that we've made have been broken by the
Lies that pull us apart
Time that we take will be stolen from a
Dream that was almost ours

Your reality is our insanity
Our humanity is calling to be free

Ah, never going back, never going back now
Ah, never gonna back, never gonna back down
Ah, never going back, never going back now
Ah, never gonna back, never gonna back down

You and I
Turned away from the promise to try
You and I
Found our faith in the will of a lie
You and I

Ah, never going back, never going back now
Ah, never gonna back, never gonna back down
Ah, never going back, never going back now
Ah, never gonna back, never gonna back down

    My Interpretation

    I think this song is about how confusing times are for us as a nation. It's enough to tear anyone apart at the seams but we must not back down, we must come together or we will forever be fractured.
