, Emily Robison and Martie Maguire -- dropped their first official single since the 2006 release of "Taking the Long Way." The song, "Gaslighter," takes aim at a man whose repeated lies take a damaging toll on his wife."Gaslighter, denier, doing anything to get your ass farther," the women sing in the chorus. "Gaslighter, big timer, repeating all of the mistakes of your father.
"Gaslighter, you broke me, you're sorry but where's my apology?" they ask, before the lyrics then tell the tale of a contentious divorce. "You thought I wouldn't see it if you put it in my face, give you all my money, you'll gladly walk away," the song continues, "You think it's justifiable, I think it's pretty cruel. You know you lie best when you lie to you.
"When I started getting a divorce, I had a lot to say. That sparked me being ready [for new music]" she said in. "Songwriting is really hard for me, and I think for many years, I didn't want to analyze my life or my relationship. I was just in it and dedicated and devoted, and if I had started writing songs about it, that might not have been good. I don't want to say I was in a 'survival mode,' it wasn't like that, but I was just not ready to open up like that.
