Pale Green Lyrics

I am fourteen

Wrapped in a white sheet

Rain's coming through the window

The moon lands on my feet



I am pale green

I think she laced it with pcp

I feel like i'm in hell now

I want my dad

I want my dad

I am somewhere far from seeing seeing seeing



And look at me now

It's seven in the morning

You're dreaming where it's storming

I miss you

I miss you without warning

I am somewhere far from seeing

It's "I am somewhere far from sleep"

Cover art for Pale Green lyrics by Veruca Salt

Clearly the song is about Louise´s (probably first?) experiences with drugs (PCP), maybe at a party.

Some girl mixed a drink or something with PCP and gave it to her. She cannot sleep (I am far from sleep) until 7 a.m. and feels sick and she wants back to her parents (I want my dad) and be safe again.

You're dreaming where it's storming I miss you

Maybe "you" is her friend that is next to her but s/he is day-dreaming about something else and doesn't acknowledge Louise´s presence. So she misses her friend, although he or she is right there next to her.

The moon lands on my feet ...describes her experiences through drugs (feeling dizzy)

The song is about how as a teenager you get away from your home and make experience new things and meet new people your age, but often it is shitty and the cost is your safety.

Or maybe the friend is actually sleeping and "dreaming of a place somewhere else" and Louise is the only one who is still awake. No-one is there for her and she feels miserable from the withdrawal of drugs (and alcohol?)
