We let ourselves be blinded
By ignorance and hate
That keeps us narrow-minded
And leaves others to their fate
We let the hatred-mongers
Weave fairy tales of fear
“There are those amongst us
Who just don’t belong here”
They mix half-truth with anger
And take real people’s pain
And twist it with their stories
For their own hateful gain
And by the time we see it
It’s sadly far too late
They’ve taken back control
And we’re left to our fate.
