Morphine

Verse

A long way from home and lonely.

No letter not a call.

I can hear the sound of footsteps

But no ones in the hall.

Pre chorus

Breathe in breathe out

Let it go.

Breathe in breathe out

Let it go.

Chorus

Morphine is the god I pray to.

I met her in the war.

Watched her soothe the throes of death.

Row men to the shore.

Morphine is the god I pray to.

I met her in the war.

Verse

The nurse has a vile and syringe.

This angel has no wings.

I can see her lips are moving.

But I can’t hear a thing.

Pre chorus

Breathe in breathe out

Let it go.

Breathe in breathe out

Let it go.

Chorus

Morphine is the god I pray to.

I met her in the war.

Watched her soothe the throes of death.

Row men to the shore.

Morphine is the god I pray to.

I met her in the war.

Verse

Done all they can but it’s hopeless.

No saving me this time.

I can see the fear in their faces

It is my time to die.

Bridge

My god is powerful she’s merciful.

She is my only friend

I am praying that she stays beside me.

Beside me till the end.

Pre chorus

Breathe in breathe out

Let it go.

Breathe in breathe out

Let it go.

Chorus

Morphine is the god I pray to.

I met her in the war.

Watched her soothe the throes of death.

Row men to the shore.

Morphine is the god I pray to.

I met her in the war.
