My Dark Star Lyrics

In a hired car, she will come to England from the sea
And as the tide flows, the London snows will come
And from the skyline shines the lies of the government's singular history
So in a hired world, she will buy a gun
But she will come from India with a love in her eyes
That say, "Oh, how my dark star will rise"
In rented gear two-thousand years, we waited for a man
But with a tattooed tear, she'd die for us all tonight
But she will come from India with a love in her eyes
That say, "Oh, how my dark star will rise"
Oh, how my dark star, oh, how my dark star
Oh, how my dark star will rise
But she will come from India with a gun at her side
Or she will come from Argentina with her cemetery eyes that say
"Oh, how my dark star will rise"
Oh, how my dark star will rise
But she will rise, she will rise
But she will rise, she will rise
But she will rise, she will rise
But she will rise, but she will rise

Sounds like some sort of revenge for mistreatment by the British government? India was under British rule for quite some time, and Argentina has the Falklands. The line about the government's lies would seem to confirm this.
