Ignorance is bliss... but is it worth it?
How great it must be to live in ignorance
Pure Bliss, eternal innocence
No cares or worries, duties and tasks
To live in the present
And forget the past.
How great it must be to be naive
Set firmly in youth
Never having to leave
Never having to grow up
Living life as a child
Never experiencing the hard
Only the mild
Oh How great it must be to live life carefree
No purposeful duties yet never to see
No reason or rhyme to why they exist
A person forever in darkness
Oh how great it must be to live in ignorance
to be naive
And live carefree.
Yet not to matter, not of worth,
To learn nothing with nothing to see.
Oh how great it is to have some knowledge.
To learn something, everything to see.
Oh how great it is to be.
