**Pretty dull and pseudo-cerebral.** The music tries to make every single scene something super meaningful. But really it's just two sad men with regrets who have no clue how to find true happiness. One is sad that he didn't make bad decisions in life. One is sad that he did. In succumbing to this sadness, they both exhibit the inability to be or become content. (Philippians 4:11)
