lirik lagu tonton raymond - lost bodies
[verse 1: tonton raymond]
this is for sailor fathers
still on a ship
being prayed for by their families
while we hoping they don’t sink
for soldiers keeping the peace
in jungles deep while we sleep
hoping they not cut to pieces by the evils or the beasts
for lives lost in suicide blasts
we hoping to blow up
but not like this
no not like that
life cut short violently
buried underneath debris
as the body p-ss and slowly turn into ash
this is for bodies lost
never to make it back
no closure for those you leave and never come back
this is for you
hoping you find a way back
pray that time will last
death shouldn’t take you like that
[pre-chorus: mon lee & tonton]
water carry them go (water carry them go)
water carry them go (water carry them go)
water carry them go (water carry them go)
water carry them go (water carry them go)
[chorus: mon lee]
this one’s for lost bodies
ye ye ye ye ye ye ye
this one’s for lost bodies
ye
this one’s for lost bodies
ye- ay
[verse 2: tonton raymond]
at a funeral without a body to bury
so we show up with physical items
symbols of memories
give them a new home in the cemetery
tears falling from eyes
only left with what we remember
but in time that also starts to die
because like death turns bodies into corpses
time also turns memories into ashes
there’s nothing to remember, no body to warm like ember
no memories to warm through the cold of december
can you remember how your dead even talked?
nicknames they gave you you were so fond of
the sound of your name when they called?
probably not
that bomb didn’t bring a body back to us
the sea first took you from us
so we forgot
this is for the flesh that we no longer get to touch
for the faces we won’t see
the ones who dipped our eyes into a sea
this water blurring my vision tastes salty
and if the tears run from the same place as the sea
why can’t i find where you have been lost inside of me?
it’s crazy, how i forget your voices melody
the rift in your laugh
the smell you leave in a room when you p-ss
it all turns into ash
and fades with the wind
but that’s not how thoughts soar
thinned out my lungs heaving in front of death’s door
now i’m out here pouring out liquor on the floor
fighting steady wars that can break through my armour
there’s pain in these thoughts and i swear that it hurts
there’s pain in these thoughts and i swear that it hurts
there’s all of these thoughts and they’re trying to k!ll us
[pre-chorus: mon lee & tonton]
water carry them go (water carry them go)
water carry them go (water carry them go)
water carry them go (water carry them go)
water carry them go (water carry them go)
[chorus: mon lee]
this one’s for lost bodies
ye ye ye ye ye ye ye
this one’s for lost bodies
ye
this one’s for lost bodies
ye-ay
[outro: tonton raymond]
for the lost
for the found
for the living
those in the ground
for the lost
for the found
for the living
those in the ground
