State Control Lyrics

State Control protests against certain types of governments which try to manipulate society into functioning like a machine. It is told from the perspective of a working-classed taxi driver who decides that even though he is poor, he is fed up of certain people blaming the rich, when he has seen some governments act in a way which is extremely corrupt, using the same tax money to fund surveillance operations, build large data-bases and act in an intimidating manner towards its citizens, attempting to police people's every move. The song was inspired by the activities of the government in Great Britain, during the mid to late 2000s. "State Control" also protests state corruption and a person having to deal with the state wherever a person goes. The song has a pop-rock feel and sounds in part like David Bowie.
