I just noticed thatthe song is based off of the book "Anthem" by Ayn Rand. Its about an ultra-communist society in the future in which people couldnt express emotions or speak their mind, and had their entire futures predetermined for them by "councils". And all of the people had names similar to Sympathy 3000-21, such the protaginist's name Equality 7-2521.
