Say Ignorance is Bliss

I’m a little more than a little broken,

I’m a lot less than a little unaware

Heavier words were never more softly spoken

Nothing so innocent ever gave me such a scare

 

Say ignorance is bliss, but it’s taken everything it gave

Think I’d learn, but I cling to the fantasy of the next day

But never wiser have I risen from the grave

The ghosts will teach me a lesson that they will betray

 

I will be blindsided and caught off guard

I will complete, but I will not pass, the next test

I’m tired of telling myself I’ve survived worse, so this can’t be that hard

I’ve been stretched too thin, too long, can I just find any rest?
