"Scapegoat" lyrics

ANOHNI and the Johnsons Lyrics

"Scapegoat"

You're so kill-able
Just so kill-able
It's not personal
It's just the way you were born
And in this society
A scapegoat is all I can be
Oh, you're so kill-able
I can say just what I want
I can use you like a toilet

I can punch you
Take all of my hate
Into your body
I can punch you
Take all of my hate
Into your body

Put here for me to loathe
Like an apple hanging on a tree
All I have to do is take it
All I have to do is want it
You're so kill-able
Disappear-able
This one we need not protect
This one's a freebie for our guns
Take this one to a place
You'd better have your way

Take all of my hate
Into your body
Take all of my hate
Into your flesh and body

It doesn't matter who you are
Or where you come from
It doesn't matter what you've got to give
Or why you want to live
You're my scapegoat
It's not personal

You're my scapegoat
It's not personal
