Verse

God of the rich man
ain't the God for the poor.
God, men and the state hospital is closed.
And wouldn’t you know
Winos and office girls in the park. 
Wanted you alone to walk beside her,
Wanted you alone to live beside her,
It was morning,
better roads with light on them.

Chorus

Can your diamonds talk to you,
Can you see them shine.
Keep them hiding in your room,
Can they guide you in your time.
Can they guide you in your time.
    

Verse

Windows were broken by your dear one’s hands,
Gates left swinging by your dear one’s hands,
an old book salesman,
asked if he could step in. 
The sidewalks you slept on held no rest.
Gave away the money you'd saved in your trust,
you're sorry now.
Light hits you funny at the time.

Chorus

Can your diamonds talk to you,
Can you see them shine.
Keep them hiding in your room,
Can they guide you in your time.
Can they guide you in your time.

Bridge

The sidewalks,  
You slept on,  
They're so broken.  
They're so broken down  
I'll meet you there.  
I'll meet you there.   

Verse

Years before the trees would start to bloom,
You walked outside, wanted back in your room,
What did you hope for,
Turned the corner while you slept. 
God of the rich man
ain't the God for the poor.
God, men and the state hospital is closed.
And wouldn’t you know
Winos and office girls in the park. 

Chorus

Can your diamonds talk to you,
Can you see them shine.
Keep them hiding in your room,
Can they guide you in your time.
Can they guide you in your time.
Can your diamonds talk to you,
Can you see them shine.
Keep them hiding in your room,
Can they guide you in your time.
Can they guide you in your time.
