lyrics

v.1
You could tell me to my face that you love me
And I still wouldn't believe you
I'm in the habit of assuming the worst
So, you love me, where's the joke
What's the twist, am I missing something here
It's not that I think I'm unworthy of love
It's probably something I fear

pre-c
But ignorance is bliss, I guess
Ignorance is bliss, I guess
Ignorance is bliss, I guess
Loneliness is bliss, I guess

c.
They say it all happens in good time
But what time will that be
Cuz the clock is ticking
Counting down the hours I spend
With no will to be bold
And I'm scared of getting old

v.2
Every line in my planner is full
I'm too busy to schedule in a person
How could I when these accidental walls I've built
Are concrete, it's routine to keep everyone out
And it's hard to find someone willing enough
To break these walls down

[rep. pre-c + c]

b.
True, I've never settled, but I've never had the chance
It's easy to look strong when you run from any romance
I need to fall, run and hide, can't let any of it show
Maybe love is something I'm never gonna know

[rep. pre-c + c]

With You, Whatever Happens
by Lauren Fairweather

supported by 6 fans who also own “Ignorance Is Bliss”

A long-awaited wizard rock album from a pioneer of the wrock community. Mostly wrock, but there are some other nerdy songs thrown in, though they don't disrupt the cohesion. Lauren is always awesome, and if you liked her previous music, you will enjoy this fuller sound even more. yourwizardrockresource

The Time-Turner EP
by The Mudbloods

supported by 4 fans who also own “Ignorance Is Bliss”

This is a gorgeously mature EP that pulls at the heartstrings in a way I didn't expect from wrock about Cursed Child. In it, you'll find two tender ballads from fathers to sons, a catchy celebration of a world gone wrong, an upbeat jam about teenage love and two touching love songs from husband to wife. Every single song is deftly crafted and has the exquisite lyrics from the Mudbloods that I just love. yourwizardrockresource
