It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain is starting to slip away, hey hey
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But there may be pills at work
Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor?
I was trying to fool you when I'm crawling up that door
And theres a tune at things you say that you don't do
Why don't you wreck?
I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I'm walking up surrounded by me
A&E
It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain is starting to slip away, hey hey
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But there may be pills at work
How did I get to accident, emergency?
All I wanted was you to take me out high
And I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I hoped you'd call and hoped you'd see me
A&E
And the pain is starting to slip away, hey hey
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But there may be pills at work
Do you really wanna know how I was dancing on the floor?
I was trying to fool you when I'm crawling up that door
And theres a tune at things you say that you don't do
Why don't you wreck?
I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I'm walking up surrounded by me
A&E
It's a blue, bright blue Saturday, hey hey
And the pain is starting to slip away, hey hey
I'm in a backless dress on a pastel ward that's shining
Think I want you still
But there may be pills at work
How did I get to accident, emergency?
All I wanted was you to take me out high
And I was feeling lonely, feeling blue
Feeling like I needed you
Like I hoped you'd call and hoped you'd see me
A&E

The backless dress part - I think the character in the song realised the other person wasn't coming after all. She was all dressed up, either wishful thinking that he did love her (starting to lose her grip on reality a little) or there was meant to be a romantic date and he ditched her. Either way she started drinking or taking drugs, and it went too far. I'm not sure if it was deliberate or accidental, but she's ended up in A&E lying on a bed in a ward. The doctors have given her something, or the stuff she took hasn't worn off yet, and she feels numbed and anaesthetised from her pain. A beautiful song, that makes me think I can hear her heart breaking.
