Bankrupt on Selling by 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 sandals 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 angels
They'd sell off yer soul for a set of new wings
And anything gold they remember
And 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
Well 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
