Sacrifice Lyrics
we die one thousand deaths
they held us close to taste the flames
a sacrifice
to pacify the gods they've made
the stench of stagnant blood
collects in pools of misery
they drained from us and stained
themselves in blasphemy
we are the sacrifice
your tainted offering
we are the sacrifice
now you will share our suffering
we steal a final breath
a tattered veil averts our eyes
from their hypocrisy
their cruel intent hidden by lies
the silence lingering
like the condemed waiting to die
in darkest red
reflecting black beneath the light
(repeat chorus)
in the eyes of our father
from the tears of our mother
IN THE EYES OF YOUR FATHER
FROM THE TEARS OF YOUR MOTHER
IN THE EYES OF YOUR FATHER
FROM THE TEARS OF YOUR MOTHER'S SHAME
SHAME!
(repeat chorus)
they held us close to taste the flames
a sacrifice
to pacify the gods they've made
collects in pools of misery
they drained from us and stained
themselves in blasphemy
your tainted offering
we are the sacrifice
now you will share our suffering
from their hypocrisy
their cruel intent hidden by lies
the silence lingering
like the condemed waiting to die
in darkest red
reflecting black beneath the light
from the tears of our mother
IN THE EYES OF YOUR FATHER
FROM THE TEARS OF YOUR MOTHER
IN THE EYES OF YOUR FATHER
FROM THE TEARS OF YOUR MOTHER'S SHAME
SHAME!

Sounds to me like...I don't know. I'll have to listen to it again.....
Look at Dying Fetus's Vengeance Unleashed and you'll get a pretty good idea of what this song means.
