Hospice is apparently a concept album. I just know that with “Two,” The Antlers put together a heartbreaking story of watching a loved one die of a cancer (I think; let me know if it means something else):
You had a new dream, it was more like a nightmare.
You were just a little kid, and they cut your hair,
then they stuck you in machines, you came so close to dying.
They should have listened, they thought that you were lying.
Listen here.
