about

This song was written pre-election, in light of the rapid gentrification that is happening throughout the country, specifically in Nashville where I live. Post election, this song also speaks against the displacement of people through racism and xenophobia too. We must fight against these acts of injustice.

lyrics

These walls are tired and soft with time
The floors are dark they do not shine
There's no one left to foot the bill
So they'll tear it town into a rubble, tear it down into a rubble hill

Send them down, send them down
Down down across the hill
Well tear them down, tear them down
Down into a rubble, down into a rubble hill

You'll take their money, they'll take your will
They'll send you down across the rubble hill
And all that's left to sing the blues
Is an old suitcase and worn-out shoes

Send them down, send them down
Down down across the hill
Well tear them down, tear them down
Down into a rubble, down into a rubble hill

Well the man with the money is here to stay
He's a man with desire for real estate
He's gonna build these walls with pillars of salt
He's gonna build his glory from a rubble, build his glory from a rubble hill

Send them down, send them down
Down down across the hill
Well tear them down, tear them down
Down into a rubble, down into a rubble hill
