| The Goo Goo Dolls – Black Balloon Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
Wow. You guys crack me up. Drugs are often sold in balloons so that they can be easily hidden in the mouth. Different colors are used to distinguish between drugs - black balloons are used for heroin. "And you're not thinking bout tomorrow" - an addict doesn't worry about the next day or think about what could happen, all that matters is getting high right now "Scatter like ice from the spoon" - to prepare heroin for injection, one must mix the drug with water, most commonly in a spoon "That was your womb" - her reason for living, her purpose, the core of her "Coming down the world turned over" - heroin highs are awesome, but the come down and withdrawls are a whole different story "And I go on as you get colder" - she's dead, getting colder. I don't know if he's talking about going on with his life, or continuing to get high while she's laying there dead (I think this is the more likely meaning) |
