"Bliss" is maybe best described as dark-lens optimism - there is an honest undertone of pain and angst in almost all of the tracks - which allows for a punky vibe - and a surge of energy and hope which leaves you blindsided.

lyrics

UMBRELLAS IN THE SUN

IN THIS TOWN
MANY PEOPLE DYING WITH THEIR YOUNG
IN THIS TOWN
IT'S ALWAYS UMBRELLAS IN THE SUN
AND MISTER JOHN, HE WEARS HIS COLOGNE
AND HE'S WEEPING HIS SONG
HE SAYS:
BOY YOU SHOULD BE CAREFUL,
GENEROUS AND GRATEFUL

BUT

DON'T KEEP ME WAITING
YOU WON'T HEAR ME COMPLAINING
'BOUT THE STATE OF PERPETUAL BLISS
WHERE THOSE WHO LOSE ARE WINNING
AND ALL THE CHILDREN SINGING
ON AND ON, AND IT FEELS LIKE A KISS
STILL YOU WANT IT LIKE THIS

IN THIS TOWN
MANY PEOPLE DYING WITH THEIR YOUNG
IN THIS TOWN
IT'S ALWAYS UMBRELLAS….

IN THE SUN
IN THE SUN
IN THE SUN

HERE THERE, MAKES NO SENSE
FIGURE OUT YOUR OWN WAY
MISTER JOHN AND HIS SONG, THEY ARE HERE TO STAY
GOD IS HERE, GOD IS THERE, GOD'S FOR SURE YOU KNOW?
WIN SOME, BUILD A HOME, BUY YOURSELF SOME FINE DOORS,
KILL FOR YOUR GOD, IT'S HEROIC, YOU'RE NOT A VIGILANTE
AND I FIND IT IN THE BOOKS I SHED
AND IT'S NOT SO HARD TO FIGURE IT
AND I FIND IT SO DAMN SICKENING
AND IT FINALLY STARTS TO RICOCHET
AND I SHOUT IT, AND I SHOUT IT
AND I SHOUT
STOP KILLING ME…
