Ignorance Is Bliss

A shot so quick as ending

My life was not for me to save

Mine was not an ill for mending

So I simply took it to the grave

Ignorance is bliss

Ignorance is bliss

For what good can ever come of this

I am dead, I am dismissed

Ignorance is bliss

I am dismissed

Turn safe to rest, no dreams no waking

Life was not a gift that’s worth the taking

I saw the road and where it led

So I put a shotgun to my head

The sooner the better, so than later

After long disgrace and scorn

The longer wait, the heartache greater

This mind and soul should never have been born

Ignorance is bliss

Ignorance is bliss

For what good can ever come of this

I am dead, I am dismissed

Ignorance is bliss

Ignorance is bliss

For what good can ever come of this

I am dead, I am dismissed

For living was simply no reason

I saw the road and where it led

Early wise and brave in season

I put my shotgun to my head

Ignorance is bliss
