Counting Crows – Perfect Blue Buildings Lyrics 24 years ago
Captian, I'm sorry to burst your bubble, but this song is blatantly about heroin, namely, a heroin overdose. The song mentions friends on Virgina and La Loma, those streets are infamous for being thick with crime and drug distribution. The perfect blue buildings and the green apple sea are a representation of the hallucinations that come from herion usage, everything tends to take on a warped and colorful appearance (at least people often only remember the color of things when they come out from under the drug's influence). People die from heroin overdoses when they fall asleep, their heart shuts down. The song states, "keep me awake". Lastly, around the middle it mentions little beds in buildings made on these lives, this can only represent hospitals in which lives are what make hospitals money, little beds being the hospitals beds. Sorry, this song can only be telling the story of a herion overdosage.
