about
When someone gets to the end of the line in our world, it seems to me they're going to end up without the one thing you need to survive here: something to sell. Worst case, it's your soul, I guess, that gets sold last thing before you have nothing left. The singer is finally clear by the end of this song that he's fallen in love with someone he made up "out of whole cloth" as the old saying goes, entirely from inside his own head.
lyrics
NOTHING LEFT TO SELL LYRICS
In the dead of the night
In the teeth of the storm
In the face of destruction
I will still keep you warm
In the glare of the lights
In the blink of an eye
In the heart of confusion
Just you ask me I’ll try
Chorus
From the fine lines of fate
From the look on your face
From the sound of your voice
I made dreams I could chase
From as near as your breat
From the far side of Hell
From the promise I make
I got nothin’, really nothin’ left to sell
Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah
Hey hey yeah
Nah nah nah nah
Nah nah nah nah
Hey hey yeah
There are words you can say
There are words you can mean
There’s a lot that get caught
Somewhere right in between
There are faces you love
There are loves you just face
There is one or the other
And you’re searchin’ for grace
Chorus
If you hear what I say
If you say what I hear
If it might not come easy
Well it will come out clear
If it’s love we should make
If it’s love says we won’t
If you handle it well
I will not say that you don’t
Chorus
