In the Weeds

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
