The song “Independence Day” by Gretchen Peters, is informing middle aged Americans that relationship abuse is still prominent in today's age. This song is about a girl whose father is abusive to her mother so the mother burns the house down with the mother and father inside the house so the father can never abuse the girl. In the song the young girl says “they say he was a dangerous man.” The mother knew the father would eventually try and hurt the daughter so she had to stop him once and for all. By killing the husband the mother keeps her daughter safe for the rest of her life making the girl’s life better in the long run. In life you may lose someone but there is always a reason and it may make your life
