Blissful Illness is the third track off The Aquarian Initiative's debut EP "Here, There, Everywhere". It is a song devoted to the individual experiences of venturing into one's mind for prolonged periods of time.

lyrics

Doctor oh, Doctor
I've got a sickness
I'm living my life
In an illusionary bliss
It's not what I've hit
Rather it's simply what I've missed
And I was really hoping
You could give me a diagnostic
See I'm sick and tired of all
These second chances
And don't you get me started
On my forgotten romances
To tell you the truth
I can no longer recall what my own stance is
And to tell you the truth
I find myself rather frantic
- See I've had ups
And I've had downs
I've smiled wide
And let loose tears due to frowns
Whenever I can no longer choose
I simply give in to the sounds
They make me loose
- As I land on solid ground
Wandering the cathedral ground at midnight
So many spirits following me closely
Never are they out of my sight
Friendly reminders
That I better keep my lid screwed on tight
Either that or waste away
Ashes scrambled in the illuminated moonlight
It's not that I'm looking for a fix
Maybe my Juliet will awaken
And gift me one last kiss
The stalking silent succubus
Greets me as my name is crossed from the list
- See I've had ups
- And I've had downs
- I've smiled wide
- And let loose tears due to frowns
- Whenever I can no longer choose
- I simply give in to the sounds
- They make me loose
-As I land on solid ground.
