After their hiatus that lasted what seems like an eternity, this is by far one of the best comebacks I've ever heard. It is definitely one of my favorites by them and the message it holds is awesome. There's not a doubt in my mind that this song is meant to be for that person that's down on their luck and can't seem to do anything right. The whole song is Ben basically listing things that most people have experienced in their lives that made them feel like a "failure" and at the same time, it motivates the listener to push forward through the hell they're going through and start over which is what he means by "tear the whole world down". If you can overcome it and move on, you can say "farewell" to the failure that you thought yourself to be as it's said in the tail end of the song when Ben says in the background "so long" parallel to saying "failure". Truly, this is an amazing song inside and out from the instruments, to the lyrics, and to what it all means. What a great way to start off the Breaking Benjamin comeback!!
