Bankrupt On Selling Lyrics - The Lonesome Crowded West - Modest Mouse

Well all the Apostles-they're sitting in swings 

Saying "I'd sell off my Savior for a set of new rings, 

And some sandles with the style of straps that cling best to the era" 

So all of the businessers in their unlimited 

Hell where they buy and they sell and they sell all their 

Trash to each other but they're sick of it all 

And they're bankrupt on selling 

And all of the angel 

They'd sell off your soul for a set of new wings and anything gold 

They remember 

The people they loved their old friends 

And I've seen through'em all seen through 'em all and seen through most everything 

All the people you knew were the actors 

All the people you knew were the actors 

Well, I'll go to college and I'll learn some big words 

And I'll talk real loud 

Goddamn right I'll be heard 

You'll remember all the guys that said all those big words he must've 

Learned in college 

And it took a long time 

I came clean with myself 

I come clean out of love with my lover 

I still love her 

Loved her more when she used to be sober and I was kinder
