Piece by Piece Lyrics

Lyric discussion by JJKelsall 

Cover art for Piece by Piece lyrics by Anna Calvi

This song is about memory and how it begins so vividly in ones mind, but from then on it slowly decays until it is forgotten altogether. The lyrics are pretty good and portraying the sadness of the narrator, who doesn't want to forget, but at the same time, knows that they will eventually.

The music also gets this across, because as it progresses, it is interrupted constantly by buzzes of electronic fuzz that obscures the melody of the song, thus showing a deconstruction of the melody. Anna's sudden guitar solo is another good example of memory corruption.
