A song about the murder of a lover, Dead and Broken was inspired by the disappearance (and later murder case) of north Californian Laci Peterson back in late 2002. The song’s “woahs” are sung by Jeff Pezzati, the lead singer of Naked Raygun.
A deep dark secret down at the bottom
But this bay can't keep it unforgotten
And a story that was told has now grown taller than we'd ever wish to be
Beyond belief
I'll grab the boat if you go grab the anchor
The tarp and twine and the weights that sank her
They weren't enough, look who showed up
A new light shed is shining through, illuminating you
As we lay side by side, dead and broken
Our lives aren't the same since the night yours went stolen
Blood ran black beneath the moonlight, your lover's blood ran cold
Cutting off the hands he used to hold
A deep dark secret down at the bottom
But this bay can't keep it unforgotten
And a story that was told has now grown taller than we'd ever want to be
Beyond belief
Side by side, dead and broken
Our lives aren't the same since the night yours went stolen
Blood ran black beneath the moonlight, your lover's blood ran cold
Cutting off the hands he used to hold
