I think this song is about Jesus, look at this verse
Sorry, this is it (the death of Jesus)
It's cold and hard and badly lit (probably the feeling inside the people there)
And there's no backing out of it (literally he can't/doesn't want to back out)
So forget where you've been (I don't know)
It'll never be that good again (kind of contradicting me)
And we must only look ahead (to Easter)
Soon you're 33 (Jesus' age when he died)
And everything you tried to be
Is pulled apart by fear and greed (The chief preists were afraid of Him, that's why they killed him)
