Overtoun - Toxin Lyrics

Three shots in the back
The killer white in blue
The young victim black
The fucking pig was acquitted
What kind of god could justify that
And fifty dead in the mosques
A different way but to the same god they pray
The perpetrator was sick
White-power politicians pull the same trick
There's too many tragedies to mourn
And when they pass
What am I supposed to do
Fuck
And where the fuck is god in these times
There is no law
They get away with these crimes
These awful things happen
To those who deserve better
And nobody cares
What am I supposed to do in these times
I know the problem
But a way I can't find
Upset with myself
For not knowing how to respond
To these agonies
There's too many tragedies to mourn
What can I do but shut myself in
I'm not absolved
There's too much hate
This toxin must evaporate
There's too many tragedies to mourn
Am I complicit
Am I selfish
What am I supposed to do
Where the fuck is god while they pray
Fake benevolent groups profit from this day
Espousing kindness
Turn their backs on all other plight
And nobody knows
What am I supposed to do think or say
I have no answers
I stay out of the way
Beside myself for what seems like an eternity
While I melt away
There's too many tragedies to mourn
What can I do but shut myself in
I'm not absolved
There's too much hate
This toxin must evaporate
There's too many tragedies to mourn
This world is filled with toxin
I'm not absolved
There's too much hate
This toxin must evaporate
There's too many tragedies to mourn
Am I complicit
Am I selfish
What am I supposed to do
Toxin
What am I supposed to do

Three shots in the back
The killer white in blue
The young victim black
The fucking pig was acquitted
What kind of god could justify that
And fifty dead in the mosques
A different way but to the same god they pray
The perpetrator was sick
White-power politicians pull the same trick
There's too many tragedies to mourn
And when they pass
What am I supposed to do
Fuck
And where the fuck is god in these times
There is no law
They get away with these crimes
These awful things happen
To those who deserve better
And nobody cares
What am I supposed to do in these times
I know the problem
But a way I can't find
Upset with myself
For not knowing how to respond
To these agonies
There's too many tragedies to mourn
What can I do but shut myself in
I'm not absolved
There's too much hate
This toxin must evaporate
There's too many tragedies to mourn
Am I complicit
Am I selfish
What am I supposed to do
Where the fuck is god while they pray
Fake benevolent groups profit from this day
Espousing kindness
Turn their backs on all other plight
And nobody knows
What am I supposed to do think or say
I have no answers
I stay out of the way
Beside myself for what seems like an eternity
While I melt away
There's too many tragedies to mourn
What can I do but shut myself in
I'm not absolved
There's too much hate
This toxin must evaporate
There's too many tragedies to mourn
This world is filled with toxin
I'm not absolved
There's too much hate
This toxin must evaporate
There's too many tragedies to mourn
Am I complicit
Am I selfish
What am I supposed to do
Toxin
What am I supposed to do
