Bedsheets III: Would You Lie?

from Pieces Of Chaos by Carlyle Laurent

/

about

This song is about the currently unforgiving and unsympathetic attitude towards mental health.

lyrics

Is it worth all the effort they ask
Just pretend to be happy try not to be sad
If you buckle down stop being selfish
they say then you can just get over it

how easy it is to say,
That there's nothing wrong with her
yeah there's nothing wrong with these
entitled spoiled brats

How easy it is to read
a blog that agrees with me
it's as good no its better than fact

And If I said
that I cried
what would you say
would you lie
would you say
you were there

And if I said
that I meant this
that I need it
just to quit
would you say
that was alright
would you lie

It's just like anything else
put a plaster on it and it goes away
It's just like anything else
if you ignore it it causes no pain

We're uneducated, we're stuck in our ways
like everything else if we ignore problem maybe it'll just go away
well this isn't funny, and it isn't safe
this problem will fester before it fades

And if I said
that I tried
would you care
would you lie
would you say
that's just how it is
And if I said
that I meant this
that it hurts just
to say it
would you laugh
would you cry
would you lie

My bedsheets keep me cold
they never worked at all
my monsters still haunt me

and bedsheets I trusted you
what more can I do
my monsters will haunt me

And If I said
That I hate this
that I'd do anything
to kill it
that it doesn't
just go away
Would you still
deny it
treat this
like a virus
do you know
there's lives at stake
would you lie

I only care for myself
I'm all that I see
I hate being shallow
but being deep would drown me
