Just down the street from your hotel, baby
I stay at home with my disease
And ain't this position familiar, darling
Well, all monkeys do what they see
Help me stay awake, I'm falling...
Down on Virginia and La Loma
where I got friends who care for me
You got an attitude of everything I ever wanted
I got an attitude of need
Help me stay awake, I'm falling...
CHORUS:
Asleep in perfect blue buildings
Beside the green apple sea
Gonna get me a little oblivion, baby
Try to keep myself away from me
It's 4:30 A.M. on a Tuesday
It doesn't get much worse than this
In beds in little rooms in buildings in the middle
of these lives which are completely meaningless
Help me stay awake, I'm falling...
(CHORUS)
I got bones beneath my skin, and mister...
there's a skeleton in every man's house
Beneath the dust and love and sweat that hang on everybody
there's a dead man trying to get out
Please help me stay awake, I'm falling...
(CHORUS)
I can't keep myself away from me
in a perfect blue building
how I'm gonna keep myself away
how I'm gonna keep myself away from me
keep myself away
how I'm gonna keep myself away from me
keep myself away
how I'm gonna keep myself away from me
The lyrics PERFECT BLUE BUILDINGS of COUNTING CROWS is also present in the album August and everything after (1993)
Counting Crows è un gruppo rock statunitense formatosi a Berkeley, California, nel 1989. Il loro sound si caratterizza per melodie orecchiabili, testi introspettivi e una forte componente folk-rock. Dopo anni di concerti in locali, il gruppo ha firmato con la Geffen Records nel 1993. Il loro album di debutto, *August and Everything After*, è diventato un successo internazionale grazie al singolo «Mr. Jones», raggiungendo il disco di platino multiplo. Il successo ha portato ad una intensa pressione sul frontman Adam Duritz, che ha subito un esaurimento nervoso. Questo periodo difficile si riflette nell'album successivo, *Recovering the Satellites* (1996). Nel corso degli anni, i Counting Crows hanno continuato a pubblicare album di successo come *This Desert Life* (2002) e *Saturday Nights and Sunday Mornings* (2008), mantenendo un seguito fedele grazie alla loro musica autentica e al carisma di Duritz. Tra le canzoni più rappresentative del gruppo ricordiamo «Round Here», «A Long December» e «Anna Begins».
