I think this song is about how politicians and religious figures will appeal to the masses and exploit them to have thier will carried out. "promise the bread, the wine, the life that always shines if they vote in the proper direction" points at this, as does "For your own ends, their means are dying", the chorus, and the overall message of the song.
