March Violets> Interpretation

In my interpretation of these song lyrics, March Violets is a reference to military combat personel. March could be interpreted as the march of soldiers; violets could be interpreted as the fragility of life; also, violets sounds like violence, i.e. the violence of war. Can you tell them apart? This could be addressing the overwhelming loss of our men and women who's death toll has risen to an imcomprehensible number; as a result we have become desensitized to its gravity. The reference to Ides of March is particularly suitable to this interpretation, as it was reserved for a military parade and celebrates the god Mars, god of war. Every day is the Ides of March: every day our military personel parade across the battle ground to the rythm of the war drum. Look on the blind side: rather than bright side, it implies being blind to the plague of war.
