"WHY? - FOR GAZA (Together For Palestine)"

Why?
Why?

How many times do I have to try to tell you
That I'm sorry for the things I've done? Ooh
But when I start to try to tell you
That's when you have to tell me
"Hey, this kind of trouble's only just begun", yeah, yeah, yeah
I tell myself too many times
Why don't you ever learn to keep your big mouth shut? Oh
That's why it hurts so bad to hear the words
That keep on falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth
Falling from your mouth

Tell me
Why?

I may be mad
I may be blind
I may be viciously unkind
But I can still read what you're thinking, oh, ooh
And I've heard it said too many times
That you'd be better off
Besides, why can't you see this boat is sinking?
This boat is sinking, this boat is sinking, sinking, sinking down now
Let's go down to the water's edge
And we can cast away those doubts, mmm
Some things are better left unsaid
But they still turn me inside out, mmm
Turning inside out
Turning inside out

Tell me
Why?

This is the sound of drones and guns
Watch the people run run run
Shoot to kill them just for fun
Bodies falling one by one
Stood back while they blow the fumes
Those who win and those who lose
Those who conquer and abuse
It's the game
Everything that we have seen
Captured on your iPhone screen
Can't conceal the howling scream
Oblivion, oblivion rains
Oblivion rains

Tell me
Why?

Let Gaza live
