Albert, you're being stupid. This song is an obvious reference to Kafka's Penal Colony. The lyrics focus on a random prisoner who is going to die by the Designer. And if you already read it, you know that the Designer is the main element of the tale

@Albert_Transom - obviously not; I assumed they were referencing Kafka when they called the song Penal Colony though and was commenting on the fact that they had managed to create a pretty Kafkaesque soundscape (by which I mean deceptive in terms of a perfunctory sweetness to the melody but still dark and ominous) but couldn't be bothered to type it all so just put the one word as I deemed it evocative enough of what I meant that only a tool of the highest order would mistakenly call me out on it.
