artist As we analyze the song in between the lines‚ we notice although the lyrics of this song can be interpreted as an act against the party. The tone of this song is more melancholy describing the song as not hope for the future‚ but hope for the future has already been lost. As it may seem that the future lies within the Proles‚ because they make up 75% of Oceania.
