 Struggling with Bankrupt? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

When I was 21
I took a lover who was 38
He was a broken, burned-out shell of a man
But I guess I could relate
I forgave him his addictions
While the black beans simmered on the stove
We never once pretended that he did not have a wife
What a wicked web we wove
He said, "Babe, draw me a bath
I'm gonna rinse my sins right down the drain
Of your old clawfoot tub
Just my intentions will remain"
He swore he would leave
Like a fool I believed him
I'm always standin' in line
Tryin' to cash checks from the emotionally bankrupt
When he could no longer stomach
Any more little white lies
He broke it off and left me cryin' in the pouring rain
Beneath black Midwestern skies
She took to comin' into my work
While I was tending bar
Could feel her starin' at my back while I was crackin' beers
Wonderin' how he fell so far
But he swore he would leave
Like a fool I believed him
I'm always standin' in line
Tryin'
I'm always standin' in line
Tryin'
