Grace Potter And The Nocturnals
Ragged Company
O lord I think I'm fallingTo my disbeliefI'm cursing like a sailor and lying like a thiefIt's hard to heed the calling from the better side of meWhen I'm blaming everybody else and no one's coming cleanO lord can you see my thick skin wearing thinAnd the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me inThose who gathered'round me - I'm watching them all leaveCause I am my own ragged companyYou can take a trip to china or take a boat to Spaintake a blue canoe around the world and never come back againBut traveling don't change a thing, it only makes it worseUnless the trip you take is in to change your cruel course'Cause every town's got a mirror and every mirror still shows meThat I am my own ragged companyO lord it's lonely, lord it's mighty coldAnd I don't want to live this wayAfraid of growing oldIt's hard to heed the warning when you cannot see the crimeThe only way to remember is to forget in a rhymeAnd I'm scared to tread the red road that leads to galileeCause I am my own ragged company
