The meaning of this song is that even after we have turned our backs on God, He will be there waiting for us to come back to Him. The song progresses through what many people try in life, going and chasing dreams, such as the "American Dream," which we seek, yet never find, as shown in the line "Yet we've been condemned to chase these dreams that never end." We will never reach those dreams, as we will always have that feeling of discontentment, and of being alone. Until we come back to God (the last verse of the song), we can never be content, as "Our selfishness consumes us until the whole world is not enough."
