Gilded Walls

(album: My American Dream - 2018)

Well I guess you don't need clean air to breathe
When you think you'll be just fine
And the water that you're drinking from a Michigan sink
Inside your gilded walls that shine

And I work two jobs and raise a family
While you're living on everything your daddy left behind
And it's clear you don't care about the folks down here
Inside your gilded walls that shine

Oh and I don't believe in the devil
But you might make me go and change my mind
You could see this whole damn world get leveled
And not even lose track of time
Inside your gilded walls that shine

Well another group of kids in a high school, dead
But you're still at your golf course teeing off at nine
People marching in the streets trying to find a little peace
You sit around [?]

Oh and I don't believe in the devil
But you might make me go and change my mind
You could see this whole damn world get leveled
And not even lose track of time
Inside your gilded walls that shine

Well you've always been the same, you ain't ever gonna change
But I know it's gonna all catch up with you in time
And there's a pot of gold for all the dreams you stole
Inside your gilded walls that shine

Oh and I don't believe in the devil
You might make me go and change my mind
You could see this whole damn world get leveled
And not even lose track of time
Inside your gilded walls that shine
Inside your gilded walls that shine
Inside your gilded walls that shine
