Matchbox Twenty - Bed of Lies/Mad Season



Artist: Matchbox Twenty
Song: Bed of Lies
Album: Mad Season
Year: 2000


"No, I would not sleep in this bed of lies, so toss me out and turn in. And there'll be no rest for these tired eyes, I'm marking it down to learning, I am..."

"I am all that I'll ever be when you lay your hands over me, but don't go weak on me, please I know that it's weak but God help me, I need this..."


*A DECLARATION: Today someone told me a story, something that kind of opened my eyes, an ugly truth, one that I had already thought about but I did not want to believe or maybe I was just fooling myself. Here's an excerpt of that story mixed with some interpretation. Suddenly it all became so clear, and it helped me solve the equation, suddenly all the pieces began to fit. Like I said, perhaps I was fooling myself over this someone, so blinded by this belief of wanting to see everything perfect but then it hit me, it hit like a damn rock in the damn head, the ugly truth shall be only for me to know and I still find it hard to believe, I don't really want to believe it, I would like to think is just some twisted coincidence, but the facts lead me to think that there is some truth in it, 'that's it, that's why'. It is really sad when superficial stuff, that might be unconsciously, willingly or somehow "imposed", could drive someone's ability to choose and decide with whom you want to be. What I'm trying to say here is that despite someone sweetness and the image they may sell or portrait, there is always a shady side on people, something that is never told but matters when it comes to choosing a potential candidate if you know what I mean... I know everyone has some parameters and ideals, but when they are as superficial as in this case it is so hard to believe and more coming from a person you never thought would use those parameters to choose, but guess what... Foolishly I still want to think this could be an exception.

"I feel stupid, but I know it won't last for long and I've been guessing and I coulda been guessing wrong. You don't know me now, I kinda thought that you should somehow. Does that whole mad season got ya down?"

"I feel stupid, but I think I been catching on. I feel ugly, but I know I still turn you on..."


*BRIEF ONE: I guess the lyrics say it all...








And remember... If you liked it, buy it...
