The singer is a pretentious, upper-class, champagne socialist twit (and the song was taught to me by a girl who largely fits that description, too), but the song and video are pretty... On point.
Like if Bruce Springsteen went to a "public" school, lol.
The song is very folksy sounding and looking at the lyrics I can see why it could be interpreted as either nihilistic or hopeful depending on the listener.
I like Ben Howard's "Oats in the Water" it always invokes a reaction from me.
