In a melody as haunting as the tale it tells, we're led through an emotional labyrinth of love, loss, and regret. The Antlers paint a vivid picture of a relationship born amidst the sterile walls of a hospital room; one party is the caregiver, the other, a patient suffering from an unspecified but clearly serious illness. It's a poignant exploration of guilt - the feeling of owing someone for their past sufferings and trying to make up for it. Yet it’s laced with the bitter truth that sometimes love isn't enough to heal physical wounds. This song is a melancholic ode to those who've loved deeply only to find themselves powerless against fate's cruel hand.
