The Right Time For The Wrong Question Lyrics - Mortimer Nova

she walks with her head so high 

she can't even touch the ground 

her scholarship didn't provide 

wisdom beyond college now 

her parents feel funny 

they know what's best for her 

she wouldnt listen now she's 

crying right beside them 

ooh's and aahs for the first chorus 

all it takes is just one night 

to turn yourself into a whore 

intoxicated hazings to 

ruin 18 years or so 

her father can't help crying 

from the loss of his little girl 

he tried so hard to warn her 

now it's too late listen 

one young poet walks away and another won't believe your shame 

realize we fade away and embrace the dawn of a coming day 

let go of the volitile and hope someone comes to your grave 

if you didn't impact someones life believe me you've wasted your own 

we need to break down and accept 

fate as it is dealt to us 

we're always too busy trying 

to to cheat the obligatory 

it's funny how we seem to 

feign so much sincerity 

and prolong with hope and love 

living artificially 

one young poet walks away and another won't believe your shame 

realize we fade away and embrace the dawn of a coming day 

let go of the volitile and hope someone comes to your grave 

if you didn't impact someones life believe me you've wasted your own
