Great song. What i get out of this is a Soldier that is in a war and suffering from war like symptoms. Hes kind of gone to la la land from all the stress and killings from the war. Hes thinking all this stuff to himself then...

"And then it came Blood rushing straight Through the eyes of pain Moving up Getting sane"

I think the chorus is about he being brought back to reality. "and then it came blood rushing straight through the eyes of pain." I think that means his eyes are shot and hurt from no sleep and fatigue, and now has to pay attention to his surroundings for he has to go focus on the battle. "moving up getting sane" I think that means his squad is moving forward and now he has to do the same and quit daydreaming and get sane and pay attention.
