To me it's about the Aztecs who would sacrifice willing victims to appease their gods. The victims would often consider their duty to give up their lives to appease the gods and do their part to help the civilization. The song has a very expansive feel to conjure up the incredible feeling of waiting until the last split second when the sun hits the horizon and the cutting begins.
