From April to August the fields fill in
Each harvest they empty out again
From mattress to mattress you wheel and spin
In circles tight as your abdomen
Do you know what it's like to give
Out assistance that nobody needs?
Do you know what it's like to live
Surrounded by weeds?
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
From weakness to weakness, from strength to strength
To keep this I'd go to any length
From Haven to Derry, from home to town
I'll carry each burden you throw down
Do you know what it's like to throw
Out your love like a handful of seeds?
Do you know what it's like to grow
Surrounded by weeds?
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
This country, where some must fail
You grew straighter while I stayеd frail
And bitterness can corrode thе soul
So wipe my name off that honor roll
Same old flag up a new flagpole
In the square where the town was founded
Have you ever been surrounded?
As developers' dreams turn real
With a pen and a fistful of keys
Do you know what it's like to feel
Surrounded by weeds?
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
From paycheck to paycheck, the way we live
While they check how good our credit is
From castles to candles we'll build your dreams
They want those, unlikely as it seems
Each harvest they empty out again
From mattress to mattress you wheel and spin
In circles tight as your abdomen
Do you know what it's like to give
Out assistance that nobody needs?
Do you know what it's like to live
Surrounded by weeds?
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
From weakness to weakness, from strength to strength
To keep this I'd go to any length
From Haven to Derry, from home to town
I'll carry each burden you throw down
Do you know what it's like to throw
Out your love like a handful of seeds?
Do you know what it's like to grow
Surrounded by weeds?
Surrounded by weeds
Surrounded by weeds
This country, where some must fail
You grew straighter while I stayеd frail
And bitterness can corrode thе soul
So wipe my name off that honor roll
