Ragged Company

If this sounds mildly familiar in spots, then congrats on your knowledge of Grace Potter and the Nocturnals. Wine and their music was a huge influence on this one.

Ragged Company

And we’ll drink away our fortunes,
trading twilight for midnight
Wasted bodies wasting time
Waiting while we’re wading,
merely skimming the surface
of love and fear and apologies
Naively approaching daylight
and guessing at what we know--
Are we falling or flying
in and out of this oblivion?
It's okay now
We can smile at lost time
and ragged company
