This song is about the recent wars in the Middle East. I think it's directed at the soldiers in general.
"Disgraced
Expendable, we are not really real
A mirage of solitude is what they try to heal and
I will not be made to feel we are sealed in a fake charade"
This first part is talking about the US soldiers. They are often told that they are expendable and that the individual is not important, only the team/army/mission. Then the view switches to the US people and how they are being convinced that the United States is in its own little world.
"Spewing bile atrocities ----- talking bad about a certain group or spreading lies
Bringing existence to it's knees ----- not sure about this line
I will manifest my sins and ----- being taught to kill or torture
I will Kill Mercy Within ----- killing the idea of mercy in your head so that you are able to keep sane
Immersed in this hypnotic spell ----- brainwashed in what you are told, only getting info from one source
Influenced by the hate that swells ----- the fighting keeps going on because of the hate
I'm not terrified anymore ----- the leaders of the terrorists are all but wiped out
There's nothing left but open sores" ----- US pulls out but everyone is still sore over the whole thing
"Disengaged
Relinquish the reality, I've known
I'm feeling like I'm alienated from my own and
I will not be made to feel we are sealed in a fake charade"
This verse can represent the educated person or the soldier returning from war. Suddenly your blinders are off and you know what is really going on in the world or government. You feel like no one else understands or is willing to understand so that they might keep their happy life, blissfully unaware.
