Gordon David - Is Ignorance Bliss?

This time I’m not to blame
Wondering how to claim
That we won the mind games
Nothing remains the same

Was it something that was said
I lie wide awake in my bed
Cannot sleep thinking of the dead
Horrible visions in my head

Could you lend a hand
Maybe take a stand
In a foreign land
Is this what you planned

No bleeding hearts to be found
Keeping our feet on the ground
Keep on searching all around
Look up but never look down

Trying to be kind
Blind leading the blind
That is what you’ll find
Out of sight is out of mind

Let the little children play
Teach them of a peaceful way
War cannot be here to stay
Kids need peace, get it today

What is a lasting peace worth
Save our planet, mother Earth
Is ignorance really bliss
Gift for you, a loving kiss

Gordon David
