Lyrics
Midnight's crazy when you're down
Midnight is intense when you're feeling low
Plant your tears in the ground
Bury your sorrows in the ground like seeds
Dream plantations slowly grow
Imaginary dreams slowly take root and grow
Until they cover your sorrow
Eventually, these dreams cover and hide your sadness
(Silver city knows) It's hard to love
The city, referred to as the "Silver city," acknowledges the difficulty of finding love and living there
(Silver city tears) Living here
-(Silver city knows) It's hard to love
-(Silver city tears) Living here
-That don't stop me
The challenges of the city don't deter the speaker
That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-Walk for years, desert man
A person walking through the desert for years
Footprints swallowed in the sand
Footprints are lost in the sand
Makes me dizzy this city of mine
The speaker feels disoriented in their city with metaphorical "jagged teeth" made of glass
Jagged teeth, made of glass, rising up and meet me in the sky
Visualizes the city rising like jagged glass structures in the sky
(Silver city knows) It's hard to love
Reiteration of the difficulty of love and living in the Silver city
(Silver city tears) Living here
-(Silver city knows) It's hard to love
-(Silver city tears) Living here
-That don't stop me
Despite challenges, the speaker remains undeterred
That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-That don't stop me
-I don't remember this place at all
The speaker has no memory of the current place but dreams of being somewhere else
Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-I don't remember this place at all
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
-Just that I'm dreaming of somewhere else
Reinforces the recurring theme of dreaming of a different place
