Sane
A word for someone who doesn’t know
The things this world can give you
Calm
To do what others think you should
Alive
To feel
No matter the emotion
Friend
Someone by your side
Family
Someone you don't want to live without

Maybe these things are good
As i’ve been told
Maybe i’ve been told wrong
I hear
Ignorance is bliss
It has been
At least in my experience

Fear
The thing that keeps you alive
Loneliness
An emotion felt when you finally get time to yourself
But too much time, when you asked for a little
Pain
To be unhappy yet still
Completely alive
Death
When life is over
And no one knows what happens

Maybe these things are bad
Or so i’ve been told
I don't really know
Ignorance is bliss
At least i think it is
Because you don’t have to think as much
About the things you know to be true

Lying
To not say something you think
Cheating
To do something someone else dislikes
Stealing
To take what you want
Faking
To be something your not
Fool
To travel the path untaken

This is how i’ve been described
The things i’ve been taught
They say
Ignorance is bliss
But you can’t exactly get that back
