I have not heard this song, so I cannot identify with the emotion and it isn't particularly "poetry" so has no emotive either. However, the words are simple enough to really understand and feel without too much provocation.
"Well let's start by making it clear, who is the enemy here?" This type of question beggs clarity or understanding when provided equally understandable sides. In order to define the enemy, you have to understand it first by equally acknowledging both the good and bad.
"And we'll show them that it's not them that is superior." The "enemy" or "bad side" want's to dominate; to conquer the side that want's to "shed light" on the truth...Geez, how many umpteenth ways can that be applied.
"It's gonna be bad, it's gonna be wrong, it's gonna feel good." While it seems contradictory that "bad," "wrong," and "good" could be mentioned in the same context, the shift more so describes a freedom from that which has tied you down; it's much easier to be subordinate and ignore the truth while consequently submitting to the lies. Therefore, calling out the enemy may feel "bad" and "wrong," but it will equally feel liberating and true!
"Marching the hate machine into the sun" can be double-entendre...once the truth has been discovered and brought to light, the enemy can no longer keep you in the dark. Or, once the truth is discovered and revealed, one will feel betrayed and become determined to escape the darkness, thus onward marches the hate machine into the...darkness...again...so, into the sun means enlightenment, it must!
Anywho, clever, yet simple way to explain the most fundamental idea of darkness and light and all that it encompasses, symbolically.
A theif in the night may steal your light, but can never take away your thunder. Haha. It's a simple metaphor/song that is easy to understand and isn't too convoluded with exception.
