Gaslight Anthem, The - Sweet Morphine Lyrics
Oh my darling, you are the restless sea.
With your black heart raging over me.
Has the blue sky seen the same trouble as we?
Tell me true, my love, the restless sea.
The grave, your heart, and mine.
But I will hold you in my arms, where rust and sorrow lie
Underneath the bounding main tonight.
And by now, you must've found better than me...
I'm sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet.
By now, I'm sure you've gotten over me.
While you're kissing clouds and gods, I'll be crawling on my knees.
Sweet morphine.
Sweet morphine.
And yes, I've come to know you are the endless night.
High above my love, and the constellation light.
Waving your fingertips of sleep over the dark on the face of the deep.
Endless night, I know you well, indeed.
By now, you must've found better than me...
I'm sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet.
By now, I'm sure you've gotten over me.
While you're kissing clouds and gods, I'll be crawling on my knees.
Sweet morphine.
Sweet morphine.
By now, you must've found better than me...
I'm sure Jupiter and Orpheus have charmed you off your feet.
Oh, by now, I'm sure you've gotten over me.
While you're kissing clouds and gods, I'll be crawling on my knees.
Sweet morphine.
Sweet morphine.

Gaslight Anthem, The Sweet Morphine Comments
Is this song about a woman that is more in love with her drug habit than him??? Someone please tell me if they have a similar theory....not that I'd know what that's like since I've been the one with the drug problem. But maybe I've spent a lot of wondering what it's like for the women in my life and am just hearing what I want to hear.
I think you're right.
Such a Powerful song from TGA, favourite on the album
poetry.
Great band will headline a fest next year
My favorite from GaslightAnthem. It's so selfish of me that I don't want you guys to be famous, it is my OWN loving band, not anyone else XD
If I'm ever being put to sleep (euthanasia is legalized and I have stage 4 insert cancer here) I want this to be what I'm listening to as everything fades to black.

Fred amakkkkkkkk
TGA's Get Hurt album is my anthem.
Best on the album for sure
Can't wait to see them at 1045's Winter Jam!
so good
This is currently my alarm, thanks for the wonderful song, Gaslight Anthem.
great way to wake up
it is indeed my friend. it's still my alarm, by the way.
Favorite song from a great album. Hope they come back to the Norva soon.
How on Earth was this not on the main cd? To me this is one of their 5 or 6 best tracks. My goodness
This, Selected Poems and Get Hurt are my 3 favorites of the album!
This is my favourite song on the album. The Gaslight Anthem never disappoints!
This song is so cool that I thought it was a cover from another band when I first heard it. :p No offense to Gaslight, I have every album they released, but I did not believe this song was theirs when I first heard it. Probably because of the weird lead guitar. Which is very cool of course :)
So did I!
OMG Get Hurt just arrived in the post it's so AMAZING! Great job and I can't wait to see you at Manchester in November! I'm so excited! Look for and 11 year old in the 7th row!
I've never really enjoyed listening to pop. I got bullied A LOT for the music I listened too, and I never really very popular. But I don't even care about them anymore. I'm a Gaslight Anthem fan and proud :)
@ThatAwkwardGirl_
this fills my heart with joy
Dang. I'm jealous.
