[hometext] => ignorance is bliss
[bodytext] => Little girl sits alone Wonders why her mommas acting so strange She’s been in the kitchen Drinking from that bottle all day The little girl hates the bottle For changing her momma so And goes over the many plans She’s made in her head to get rid of the foe And it goes to show The more you know The more you wish you’d figured out less In the end Once Happy teen no older then 15 years Sits alone in her room and cries so many tears Wonders when it was she chose the wrong path But just cant remember, just cant remember Just cant remember anything at all She wonders what life used to be like When she didn’t depend on things to make her happy Now she wishes shed be back where she was When the days were always sunny And it goes to show The more you know The more you wish you’d figured out less In the end Father of two sits alone in the dark Contemplates where his life has gone But cant get that far Because it seems like he’s been living the same day Over and over again In this big-barred hell-hole prison Thinks over the ways he can get out of this job He hates it so much hates it so much But just cant seem to come up with anything at all So he figures he is stuck in life Where he will never be happy again And it goes to show The more you know The more you wish you’d figured out less In the end Little girl grows up Just as ***** up as her momma Hates herself, hates the whole world Hates her momma as well No matter how much she screams and she fights Deep down she cries and she cries And all she wants to hear All she really wants to hear Is a lullaby And it goes to show The more you know The more you wish you’d figured out less In the end Teen doesn’t even get to see her sweet-sixteen Hates what she has done so much And she’s stuck in the dream Of not having to live with the decisions she made So she made this cut the very last cut that she would have to make. And it goes to show The more you know The more you wish you’d figured out less In the end Father of two won’t say a word anymore Sits and stares while his children wonder where he has gone Mother cries to herself wondering what’s gone wrong Two little girls have lost their daddy they loved And even though they can see him sitting in his favorite chair They know that in reality He isn’t really there. And it goes to show The more you know The more you wish you’d figured out less In the end.
