So Sadly It Goes lyrics

What have we done to equality?
We've almost wiped out that word
Its Johnny-come-lately for mending up
For all the idea sounds absurd
I'm sorry, so sorry
I don't know what I've done
God help me-Please help me
Help me see the light
The taller you are the farther you fall
Before you make plans in advance
Set your objectives a smaller scale
This change just might improve your chance
Now as present turns to past
It looks gray and overcast
No, we're not in darkness yet
But as the sun begins to set
We can see it clearer now
Malevolence and hatred prowl
With glaring eyes and gritted grins
We won't let the bigots win
