Though the details and so on about Dachau are interesting, I think the ending to the song is key. It's similar to Mausoleum in that it's about the amnesia which is so tempting for everyone when it comes to the Holocaust. Everyone is keen to forget, to "drink it away". "Every tear is false" is obviously an exaggeration, but it points the finger at us as well as Churchill.
