Ignorant Bliss

Where do I start?

My fucked up head?

Or my fucked up heart?

 

They say the world is falling apart,

But its always been like this.

Living in the illusion of happiness

Living in ignorant bliss

Looking for one last kiss

Does it ever get better than this?

 

We look to the sky and shake our fists

Asking why god did this

Asking why my kid

Asking why my husband

Asking why the violence

Asking for forgiveness 

 

They say the world is falling apart,

But its always been like this.

Living in the illusion of happiness

Living in ignorant bliss

Looking for one last kiss

Does it ever get better than this?

 

Fuck what they say

I take it day by day

Don't look back

Don't look forward

Cause one day it'll all go black

And I will cease to exist

I will disappear

Into nothingness

 

If money is all you seek

Life will be really bleak

Money is meaningless

Power is feelingless

 

If you want to be happy

Give more then you get

Live everyday without regret

Don't look back

Don't look ahead

Live in every moment

Like its the last you'll ever get

Cause you never know

When death might steal your final breath

And you'll cease to exist,

Disappear into nothingness
