Ragged Company

O Lord, I think Im falling to my disbelief
Im cursing like a sailor and lying like a thief
Its hard to heed the calling from the better side of me
When Im blaming everybody else and no ones coming clean

O Lord, can You see my thick skin wearing thin ?
And the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in
Those who gathered 'round me Im watching them all leave
'Cause I am my own ragged company

So you can take a trip to China or take a boat to Spain
Take a blue canoe around the world and never come back again
But traveling dont change a thing, it only makes it worse
Unless the trip you take is in to change your cruel course

Cause every towns got a mirror
And every mirror still shows me
That I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company

Won't You help me, Lord?
Won't You help me, Lord?
Someone cut the cord
And I'm falling down again

Oh, its lonely, Lord, its mighty cold
And I dont wanna live this way
Afraid of growing old

Its hard to heed the warning when you cannot see the crime
The only way I can remember is to forget in a rhyme
And Im scared to tread the red road that leads to Galilee
'Cause I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
I am my own ragged company
