Lyrics

[Verse 1] I think the kids are in trouble Do not know what all the troubles are for Give 'em ice for their fevers You're the only thing I ever want anymore Live on coffee and flowers Try not to wonder what the weather will be I figured out what we're missing I tell you miserable things after you are asleep [Pre-Chorus] Now we'll leave the Silver City 'cause all the silver girls Gave us black dreams Leave the Silver City 'cause all the silver girls Everything means everything [Verse 2] It's a Hollywood summer You'd never believe the shitty thoughts I think Meet our friends out for dinner When I said what I said, I didn't mean anything We belong in a movie Try to hold it together 'til our friends are gone We should swim in a fountain Do not want to disappoint anyone [Pre-Chorus] Now we'll leave the Silver City 'cause all the silver girls Gave us black dreams Leave the Silver City to all the silver girls Everything means everything [Chorus] I was afraid I'd eat your brains I was afraid I'd eat your brains 'Cause I'm evil 'Cause I'm evil [Bridge] I'm a confident liar Have my head in the oven so you'll know where I'll be I'll try to be more romantic I want to believe in everything you believe I was less than amazing I do not know what all the troubles are for I fall asleep in your branches You're the only thing I ever want anymore [Pre-Chorus] Now we'll leave the Silver City 'cause all the silver girls Gave us black dreams Leave the Silver City to all the silver girls Everything means everything [Chorus] I was afraid I'd eat your brains I was afraid I'd eat your brains 'Cause I'm evil 'Cause I'm evil 'Cause I'm evil
