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
