"THE BLISSFULLY, IGNORANT YOU"

It’s true, I guess

Ignorance is bliss

Your life is perfect

How come they don’t get that?

Why is it always bad?

So you’ve found the love of your life

Your oh-so-perfect little wife

You think the whole world has always been beautiful

The complainers are nothing but ungrateful,

such annoying fools

There’s no empathy for the unlucky

You flaunt your fortunes

yet you give the wrong impression

too proud but ignorant

Through your eyes,

you barely realise

life isn’t just unicorns and rainbows

There are dark corners where people go

hiding their monsters so no one knows

Perhaps the real world is still too much for you

That’s cool

Stay in your safest, blissful escape

but don’t you dare question others with different fates

or belittle their battles in their reality...day by day

Your ignorance is your only bliss

It takes a real grown-up to face

what you choose to miss...
