"The Weeds" lyrics

"The Weeds"

Shot down in the doorway
He bit down on an angry seed and reaped
Back in the old days
And nobody could say there was another way

But the weeds still got such a long way to grow
But the weeds still got such a long way to grow

I'll take my time
And dig deep for they're growing wide
Dig now for they own this mind

I'm dead tired of these lonely
Cold nights in the pouring rain
I clear ground and I pay it off
And nobody can say there is another way

But the weeds still got such a long way to grow
I'll take my time
And dig deep for they're growing wide
Dig now for they own this mind
I'll make it right
Never mind how the static climbs
Never mind all the roots I find

Weeds still got such a long way to grow

What I leave will decompose
What I take I'll always hold
Let it move, let it make me whole
Weeds still got such a long way to grow

What I leave will decompose
What I take I'll always hold
Let it move, let it make me whole
Weeds still got such a long way to grow

I'll take my time
And dig deep for they're growing wide
Dig now for they own this mind
I'll make it right
Never mind how the static climbs
Never mind all the roots I find

I'll take my time
And dig deep for they're growing wide
Dig now for they own this mind
I'll make it right
Never mind how the static climbs
Never mind all the roots I find
