Song Lyrics

"Filthy Rags"

by Don Parsons
Album: 20 Years of Melodrama

Consider all of human history
Or how old earth's supposed to be
Stack dat up against eternity
--Not even a blink

Now I implore you
To see the Truth
You don't change
Get off of the track
'Cause comes a train

Walking slowly down hell's highway
Thinkin' of someplace that you'd rather be
Hear lies long enough, ya begin to believe them
I'm screaming, you're not hearing me

Now I implore you
To see the Truth
You don't change
Get off of the track
'Cause comes a train

I won't give up on you, how could I'
When I see my old self in you
We, both like filthy rags
Difference is The Cross

Now I implore you
To see the Truth
You don't change
Get off of the track
'Cause comes a train
There you remain
Comes a train
