Story behind the song
About this song This song was written about people of power... They take that power and try to destroy other people's lives... People use their words to shatter a life... They love what they do, it makes them feel good temporarily.... we have known many in our lives. We are sure you have run across your share.... At times these people lead countries, can you imagine that? Some of these people are your neighbors or teachers or social workers.....people who can make a difference in a child's life, yet choose words that shatter their lives... This is a song directed at those individuals...people who live for power.... Jerry & candace Willard
Lyrics
Shattered (Jerry Willard & Candace Willard) Shattered We sit in the shadows, we sit there and watch you. Your life dosen't matter,you sit there churning in two. And the lives that you shattered ,they meant nothing to you... 'Cause that's what you do. Yes that's what you do... That's what you do. And that's what you do.... You're shattered... We'll sit in the shadows.we'll sit there and watch you. The lives that you shattered, You take them and break them in two.... No their live doesn't matter ,they mean nothing to you. Cause that's what you do. Yes that's what you do... That's what you do. Cause that's what you do.... You're shattered... We sit in the shadows, we sit there and watch you. Your life dosen't matter,you sit there churning in two. And the lives that you shattered, they meant nothing to you... Yes the lives that you shattered,You take them and break them in two.... Cause that's what you do. Yes that's what you do... That's what you do. Cause that's what you do.... You're shattered... We'll sit in the shadows.we'll sit there and watch you. The lives that you shattered, the lives that you shatter they'll mean nothing to you. Yea lives that you shatter, you take them and break then in two... Cause that's what you do. Yes that's what you do... That's what you do. Cause that's what you do.... You're shattered... By: Candace Willard & Jerry Willard

Fine example of powerful songwriting, top class performances, nice flow, a classic feel. Wonderful, fluid and tone rich acoustic work, the subtle yet super-heavy lead fills embody the sinister nature of the subject. Comfortable, relaxed, vocal performance reminiscent of a Cat Stevens/Ian Anderson rich and smoothe delivery. Enjoyed this a lot.

'Shattered' is a great piece, as I said once before. I gets even better with the background of high gain guitar ....

Power does not corrupt real men - it corrupts only fools and idiots : if they get into a position of power, they will corrupt you. It is a strange desire, to seek power, and then... to lose freedom... or to seek power over others... and then to lose power over yourself... What are we? Puppets? Tell them the truth, Dude. Peace - Johannes.

Wonderful piece of writing! Excellent message that is unfortunately all around us-corrupting our courts, political powers, religious leaders and the list could go on. Unfortunately sometimes it's the very parents that are supposed to love and protect our children who exploit their children and use them as pawns. It's a sad subject and you covered it wonderfully!
