Ignorance is a hidden blessing
You never knew you were lucky
'cause you didn't know
With great knowledge
Come the great responsibility
And that followed by the brutal torment
But I was young and ignorant
All I wanted was the amusement came from enlightenment

The more I know, the more I wish I never knew
People are sinners, this world is full of liars
They were in disguise in the form of angels in my once immature eyes
The moment I could see pass through their facade
My whole world did fall apart
Someone please save me from this cruel truth
I beg for mercy but to no avail
What was I thinking? Hysterically did I laugh
This was everything I ever wanted

Oh my dear,
You of all people...
Oh my dearest, how do I live with this truth?
You were the one thread I was holding
to keep me from falling into the endless abyss of despair
My dear, now I have to let you go after I had known
After I had known, you are not what you're claiming to be
You are one of those from whom you told me to avoid
I'd better listen to your words
So I'm better off leaving now

Goodbye love,
My love for you still burning bright in my heart
Which adds up to the torment I am now suffering
I sang the song you used to sing,
Bringing back the old you from my memory
But that only adds up more torments into my suffering
I'm falling, my love
I'm falling with nobody to catch me

Here I am, in the abyss
I looked up and saw a light
The light which is glowing brightest in her pretense
I think I will survive the rest of my days with the memory of you
Even though it adds to my torment
I'd cling onto the old you in whom I had found my safe haven
betrayal
