Liar
Dimentia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Liar!

Do I look like a puppet?
No I got no strings
To pull me like you want to
You make me sick my friend

For everything I give to you
You took me things that I cared for
I trusted you like a brother
But now you're so far beyond me

You made up futile stories
To be the one we admire
You like too much yourself
You make me sick, my friend

For everything I give to you
You took me things that I cared for
I trusted you like a brother
But now you're so far beyond me

Motherfucker

-Solos-

You are so lonely now
Because your game is over
Poor little boy
You make me sick, my friend

For everything I give to you
You took me things that I cared for
I trusted you like a brother
But now you're so far beyond me





Liar!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dimentia's song Liar convey a sense of betrayal and disappointment towards a close friend. The vocalist starts by asserting their independence and refusing to be manipulated like a puppet. They then proceed to express their anguish at being taken for granted and their trust being taken advantage of. The second verse sees the singer accuse their friend of fabricating stories to gain admiration and praise from their peers. The singer goes on to rebuke the friend for being self-centered and morally bankrupt. The song builds up to the chorus, which serves as the climax of the singer's emotional outburst towards their 'friend', calling them a liar.


The song strikes a chord with people who have been through similar experiences of disillusionment and loss of trust. It delivers a powerful message about the importance of honesty and loyalty in relationships. The standout line 'Do I look like a puppet?' is an effective metaphor for the singer's sense of independence and refusal to be controlled by the deceitful friend. The sharp, aggressive guitar riffs and drum beats complement the lyrics and add to the intensity of the song.

My mother was easy to care for, except when she would have a bimonthly episode of frantic anxiety that would last 36 hours non-stop. She would look for lost objects and demand me to help her find them. Ten minutes later she'd be searching for the same objects again.

Meds didn't help her with this and after the 36 hours, she would fall asleep exhausted for 3 days, just getting up on her own to use the bathroom and to eat and drink a little. By then I really needed that break.


She had a large walk in closet stuffed with clothes many dating back to the 50's, 60's and 70's. I would remove one or two sets of clothing and see if she noticed it. If she didn't notice it I put it in a bag to take to Goodwill. It took several months but I got her clothing collection down to a more manageable amount.


5 years I cared for her and my father. It was a good experience and healing time for all of us, and I would be willing to do it all over again.

I'm 18 and have been a care assistant for people with severe dementia for nearly a year now. It's an incredibly rewarding job and it's been an amazing experience. My advice here to anyone who is caring for a family member with dementia is to remember they're still people, they still feel valid human emotions. Don't react to their anger with more anger, be paitent because it's the disease that's making them this way and it usually is an indication of something. Learn what their behaviour means and try a variety of responses. For example, we have one resident who shouts and becomes distressed when he is thirsty or hungry. Learn the signs and always be calm. Dementia doesn't need to be scary!

@Azzan Khan take care of yourself, study on it. Many foods and vitamins can slow it down. You are loved and important!

I love hearing of younger folks who sincerely care about helping others with dementia. I’m caring for my husband who has Young Onset of Alzheimer’s and I am praying to find loving, honest, caring folks to help when we need it.

It’s a difficult job, but rewarding. It can get you stressed up during sundown.
