darkest hour - marching to the killing rhythm lyrics

a grand deception
disguised as gods redemption
forcefed delusions of grandeur
calling out for
a willing sacrifice
of a nameless enemy
necessary losses
fulfill the bloodlust fantasy
see through this fa ade
of retribution
this machine
is marching to the killing rhythm
spilling blood in veign [probably means "vain"]
subdues the vengeful masses
so put your blinders on
replace your conscious with a flag
so you can forget
money runs thicker than blood
