A SONG A DAY lyrics : "Living Tombs"
"Instead the bars were white, not grey back then
Cant hold you in my arms or hold your hand
but I will hold the memories I have "
"You used to wear a one piece as a child
The one they give is orange, mine was blue & white
I don't need an explanation or a reason why
I just wish that I could have my child"
And she asks "Where did my baby go?"
She don't see that he's a tombstone
She asks "Where did my baby go?"
She don't see that she's lost a son
Cuz there wont be a eulogy
And the choir won't sing
He just lost his soul
So no one mourns
Ohhhh momma's child is gone
He's not the son she wants
Ohhh Innocence is gone
Hook
He's a tomb for the child
But who will you teach him how to live?
He's a tomb for the child
But who will you teach him how to live?
No one mourns for the living
When the innocence has passed
He's a tomb for the child
Who will you teach me how to live?
Verse II (Story #2)
This room reminds of the I had you in
I was the one on the white table then
I held you in my arms, I held your hand
You'll be a mom again she says
You're too young to have a child
This isn't right but this is wise
It's only been 3months , nothing's there
You'll have the child and leave him here
Girl asks "Where will my baby go?"
She don't know that she's a tombstone
She asks "Where will my baby go?"
She don't know she's lost a son
Cuz there wont be a eulogy
And a choir wont sing
She just a lost a soul
So no one mourns
Ohhhh momma's child is gone
She's not the momma he would want
Innocence is gone
Hook
She's a tomb for the child
But who will teach her how to live
She's a tomb for the child
But who will teach her how to live
No one mourns for the living
When the innocence has passed
She's a tomb for the child
But who will teach her how to live
