Lyrics Maria McKee

Maria McKee

From Our T.V. Teens to the Tomb

Singing rare has it’s season

I've been careful just trying to get it right

Lyric fair, beauty sublime

Such an opus is way ahead of time

I am full of grand ideas

I've been perfecting them for years

Large as life, with a purpose

Are we finally gonna play a gig

Is it time, been rehearsing five years

Still a way to go, better cancel it

We plan, waiting for a break

One can't rush into these things

And we believed our mothers hung the moon

We stayed asleep, forgetting what we knew

And we will dream and never leave our rooms

From our TV Teens to the tomb

When I'm dead I'll be discovered

They'll write a book about my life, my lovers

A masterpiece isn't born in a day

I'm so ambitious I hid myself away

I'd fly, the envy of all man

If I had guts to lift a pen

When we were kids, delusion served us well

But then we split to make fools of ourselves

And we will dream and never leave the shelf

From our TV Teens to the tomb

We're still holding out our cups

We will never give it up

And we believed our mothers hung the moon

We stayed asleep, forgetting what we knew

And we will dream and never leave our rooms

From our TV Teens to the tomb
