Back Down Lyrics

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

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

Never going back never going back now
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

Never going back never going back now
Never gonna back never gonna back down
Never going back never going back now
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 the lie
You and I

Never going back never going back now
Never gonna back never gonna back down
Never going back never going back now
Never gonna back never gonna back down

How Deep Is the Ocean?

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

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

Never going back never going back now
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

Never going back never going back now
Never gonna back never gonna back down
Never going back never going back now
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 the lie
You and I

Never going back never going back now
Never gonna back never gonna back down
Never going back never going back now
Never gonna back never gonna back down

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Back Down lyrics by Bob Moses

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.
