In the Weeds Lyrics

I've been taken, taken captive

A life on the run

But that boy's laying six feet under

What I'll become

I was nearsighted

Couldn't see the forest for the trees

So I just turned around then

And took off in the weeds

I've been rolling, rolling over

A life on the road

But I'm just a bug living under

some other rolling stone

I've been broken, broken open

I've been picked apart and cleaned

I've been lost and found and lost again

Somewhere in the weeds

But I'll search 'til the sun goes down

For the right to say I'm trying

I'll search 'til the moon is high

For a chance to see your face

I'll search for the reasons why

It's not enough to leave this all behind

Search 'til my time runs out

For the chance to make you stay

Or stay away

I've been listening, listening closely

Crank that stereo

I've got my boots laced up, got my collar high

Two eyes made out of coal

I'll be turning, overturning

Every stone I see

As long as you're still out there

Somewhere in the weeds

And I'll search 'til the sun goes down

For the right to say I'm trying

I'll search 'til the moon is high

For a chance to see your face

I'll search for the reasons why

It's not enough to leave this all behind

Search 'til my time runs out

For the chance to make you stay

Or stay away

Stay away
