Ensign Broderick - Our Angel of Morphine Lyrics

I saw you
Looking down on me
The aura frames
All you blind disease
And I can’t hear
Any words you speak
This connection
Now revealed
Who’d break a butterfly on a wheel
Was I that easy to replace?
You promised me a quiet place
And needing love ain’t no disgrace
And causing hurt to just save face?
You hurt me once before
And we had barely closed the door
You promised me the same old dream
It’s just the same old scene
You’re an angel of morphine
I saw you looking and I’m coming down again
Off a succor to the maimed
A muted way to describe this pain
And you said ‘breath, babe and you’ll be free’
Slide intistutial
And so unreal
And now that easy to forget, ‘cause I’m the one who can’t forgive
I hold on to what I’ve got, the most destructive way to live
In recognition of the end, the shallow cuts that never mend
And in realms where you can’t scream
And it’s just the same old scene
To the angel of morphine
And she stepped down now from her screen
Came as if a dream
The angel of morphine

I saw you
Looking down on me
The aura frames
All you blind disease
And I can’t hear
Any words you speak
This connection
Now revealed
Who’d break a butterfly on a wheel
Was I that easy to replace?
You promised me a quiet place
And needing love ain’t no disgrace
And causing hurt to just save face?
You hurt me once before
And we had barely closed the door
You promised me the same old dream
It’s just the same old scene
You’re an angel of morphine
I saw you looking and I’m coming down again
Off a succor to the maimed
A muted way to describe this pain
And you said ‘breath, babe and you’ll be free’
Slide intistutial
And so unreal
And now that easy to forget, ‘cause I’m the one who can’t forgive
I hold on to what I’ve got, the most destructive way to live
In recognition of the end, the shallow cuts that never mend
And in realms where you can’t scream
And it’s just the same old scene
To the angel of morphine
And she stepped down now from her screen
Came as if a dream
The angel of morphine
