Piece illustrates the subtext beneath the every day standoffs that can escalate into acts of domestic violence. Though Utah has one of the highest rates of domestic violence, it is a subject that is rarely addressed until the unthinkable has become breaking news. In Piece, it is difficult to see who is the victim and who is the aggressor. It asks what is self defense and what are good intentions when both partners claim they come in peace?
This track was recorded at Chillhouse Studios in Charlestown, MA. Engineered mixed and mastered by Will Holland. Lead guitar parts were recorded at Suite J in Salt Lake City, UT by DAve Crespo.
lyrics
Coming home to a rage
She’s in a million pieces
Mass destruction of an age
We’ve got a million reasons
Lose the battle, win the the war
I will sign this treaty
With just one look you slam the door
Say your peace, I’m leaving
Release the doves and don the wool
I will keep my sights up
Expecting me to be your fool
No, I keep my sights up
I go along with your ruse
Still, I keep my sights up
The olive branch
It's in my hand
In my hand
In my hand..
Behind my back
Cus she's got a gun and a plan
It’s in my hand behind my back
It’s my last chance to be a man
In a home under attack
Shes got a plan
And she's got a gun
She's got a gun
Amass the forces you command
Speaking a new language
Creep into our marriage bed
Feeling comply naked
Still my love, you are a gem
Rough cut, you are shining
You lost the glint of tenderness
With the coal your mining
Release the doves and don the wool
I will keep my sights up
Expecting me to be your fool
No, I keep my sights up
I go along with your ruse
Still, I keep my sights up
The olive branch
It's in my hand
In my hand
In my hand..
Behind my back
Cus she's got a gun and a plan
It’s in my hand behind my back
It’s my last chance to be a man
In a home under attack
Shes got a plan
And she's got a gun
She's got a gun
She's got a
The olive branch is in my hand
But I have to keep it behind my back
Think you’re foolin me
Miss white flag
She’s got a gun and a plan
So I keep my sights up
She’s got a plan
And she's got a gun
