Day 7: Its been a week now since I found this song. Im running low on food, and the song has yet to dissapear from my ears. Will I ever find peace?

The more I listen to it the more i think it's about abortion despite the concept of Hospice. Too bad there's no right answer.

@obermegalutschoar I first stumbled across this very exact song during a road trip. As we drove by in the desert, I saw the long yellow plains that stretched to the golden aura mountains in the distance and at that moment, coupled with this song, it was so breathtaking and beautiful, something that transcended anything man can ever make (well...except this song :p)

@1992420256152118 Yes and no. You can interpret that way, as a metaphor for aborting something from your body that's harming you. As this is a concept album about terminally ill patient and a hospice worker, I look at it as if the bear is a tumor and the appointments are to get rid of what's ultimately ending her. However the entire album is a metaphor for the singer's past abusive relationship so I see the bear as literally being the emotional turmoil and his attempts to help her get rid of it.

i really cant express how much i love the album cover. It's such a sweet sadness... I love it
Everyone experiences music in their own way, but here is some personal advice: when clouds are gathering outside just before dusk, but you are not sure if it is going to rain, take your iPod, phone, mp3player or whatever else and take a walk while listening to this album and taking in your surroundings.
I can't tell how it will work for you, but for me it was breath taking. That the sky was going to crush me felt like a real threat.
