A spiritual person struggling with religious choices is involved in a car crash, slips into some kind of coma, journeys through an inferno in their mind, returns to childhood memories, dies at the end? There are a lot of hints in both the music and the artwork… but then of course some things that don’t make any sense.

I dig this, maybe this narrative is one of several throughout the album. I feel like there's definitely commentary on dystopia's past & present and how some spiritual force is omnipresent through all this, which maybe the spiritual person you speak of comes into contact with and transcends?

Considering there's no reference to cars or a crash, i don't suspect there's any meaningful connection.

Also, a spiritual person struggling with religious choices? What would that look like, and why would a spiritual person downgrade their philosophical apparatus by following any dogmatic religious choice, when they have their own liberated mind to make such decisions on their own? Your theory seems like a unsubstantiated reach based on practically nothing imo.

Is this your own theory or are you reading it from somewhere?
