Inside you're pretending
Crowns have been swept aside
Somewhere
Where they can forget
Divine
Upper reaches
Still holding on
This ocean
Will not be grasped
All for nothing
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Refuse to surrender
Strung out until ripped apart
Who dares?
Who dares to condemn?
All for nothing
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Crowns have been swept aside
Somewhere
Where they can forget
Divine
Upper reaches
Still holding on
This ocean
Will not be grasped
All for nothing
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Refuse to surrender
Strung out until ripped apart
Who dares?
Who dares to condemn?
All for nothing
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want
Did you really want

It's named after the protagonists in Captain Scarlet. It's pretty dark - created by Gerry Anderson after Thunderbirds. There's also a new version in CGI, which is just as dark.
The whole premise of the program has an underlying problem of "Are the Mysterons really the bad guys"? The first episode has Captain Scarlets mate blowing up the Mysterons and starting a war. I believe, the moral ambiguity of this, caused it not to sit very well with a lot of people.
Maybe that's what the song is playing - the moral ambiguity of blame at the end of a relationship.
