  • i am very happy my friend suggested these guys to me ;D They're awesome!

  • The subject of this song is Morphine. Morphine was named after the Greek god Morphine was named after Morpheus who was the god of dreams. As a lifelong insomniac, I have been seeking to be in "the arms of Morpheus" (hypnotic sleep) all my life. When you start taking Morphine as an insomniac or for pain or extreme depression (or all 3) you feel you are safe in your mother's womb and nothing can hurt you, it feels so good you will chase after that high for the rest of your life.

  • @SeventhHeaven5655 Sorry I messed up the first line of my explanation. I meant to write that Morphine is the powerful drug named after the Greek god Morpheus. Morpheus was the god of dreams. When you are "in the arms of Morpheus", you are in a powerful, delicious hypnotic state in which you would like to stay forever, but you can't. You can chase after the high, but have to take increasingly more and more of it just to keep from being very sick. Morphine is the man-made equal to heroin.

  • Never wished I could reach out and touch music....until HURT.

  • this is an amazing song, they dont have the popularity that they deserve,

  • Hes talking about drugs for sure hence "overdose" 

  • STFU AND LISTEN TO THE HEARTBREAKING LYRICS

  • I wanna know who the 8 dislikes were so i can bitch smack them

  • One part of text:

    No no more!

    God Morpheus why did you leave me when I had need of your love?

    No holding back now!

    Give me the real thing!

    I've got a reason

    When I am alone

    Don't you ever try to take me back.

  • I don't know what to think of this song... just so powerful. I love it

  • whoa i love the up-rise at 1:28 :D

  • @KohakuKitsune

    stop watching porn and listen to the song!!! lol

    but seriously yes, its just generally a fecking good song ;)

  • Best song they have made (: :D

  • Comment removed

  • holy shit this song is bone chilling

  • just one word damn this song took me by suprise i felt like this before with it

  • Actually his drug abuse is because he is alone and when he is on drugs He can imagine that she is with him..And morpheus is because he can't imagine her there without dreaming ..and in order to dream you need Morpheus the god of dreams..

  • DecieversFinery, i like your interpretation, but if i can add to that...?

    I also looked up Morpheus, finding that Morpheus was the greek god of dreams, so you're very much right with your analysis in that he wants that perfect high he achieves to escape his debilitating depression... toward the end the sounds of his choking and sobbing are too hard for me to listen too though...

  • after reading the other comments and clraifications, i totally agree. I'm one of those who sleeps for as long as i can.. i wake up angry because i forget my dreams so quickly and it's what i dream about, what i FELT i dreamed about that bothers me the most. the Subconscious is one of those things i cant' controla nd it bugs me.

  • @theimperfektman i have been doing studies on controlling the subconcious it is the only way we will ever truely be free. i am tring to "program" or control dreams so that i can go anywhere i can imagian.

  • @bigdaddystratman i've had recurring dreams, with that deja vu feel. but everytime i feel something is slightly off from the last time. each time i get close, i wake up or the dream shifts. it's nerve-racking. good luck. the subconscious is a world unto itself. build some sandcastles :D

  • To me I always saw it as a man who once lost a lover, in a deep depression, he begins taking drugs, trying to regain that joy. He hallucinates slowly that his old lover is with him again, causing him to chase it more. He is furious slowly at the drug because he cannot regain the high and he cannot seem to call back the illusion [Hence Morpheus = Morphine] He wants to convince himself its actually happening, destroying himself.

    Thats just me, everyone's interpretation is right.

  • agreed

  • Thats correct.

  • well done :) the Morpheus Line had me alil perplexed but i think it's more the "drugs" high, not a particular drug. it's the high, indeed. Morpheus would be like, "the Changer". bravo

  • Me too!

    I totally agree with your interpretation. :)

  • @DecieversFinery

    I can definitely say i agree with you on that. Morpheus being both the drug morphine and as 689 said, the greed god of dreams. As to say the drug would induce a sort of dream like hallucination of which like you said made him think he was with said lover again. :)

  • VITAL REMAINS!!! but this stuff is neat,

  • Razr,

    When he is singing about Morpheus, he is pleading with this God to give him a form of escape in his dreams. This song is about someone falling into depression, and they are losing their will to live.

  • just a little correction, he isn't singing bout greek gods or goddesses, he's referring to Morphine, morpheus, is his crutch, and his weight all in one it both helps him stay strong and weighs him down.

  • idiot morpheus is a greek god who could take the shape and mannerisms of anyone he wanted to

  • just to clear this up...Morphine is taken from the greek god Morpheus

  • also, did you notice that he commonly refers to greek gods and goddesses in his songs?

  • j. loren is amazing. hes smart. all of his songs have deeper meanings than you think

  • *sighs* I wish I had gotten into Hurt a LONG time ago. They'd been on my Zune forever, but I hadn't stopped to listen until a few days ago. Now, I could slap myself. :P These guys are fantastic.

  • this song and all their songs are so cool they kick total ass and any 1 that disses um i think is a moron now if u wona here 35 of their songs i got a play list of them so check it out

  • best song in the history of slow rock

    got a prob with it post back deuces

  • this song tach me ...

  • he's singing to the greek god morpheus! he would appear in dreams as a human and is responsible for shaping dreams! meaning that the song is about drugs to cause sleep so that he wouldn't be alone anymore! that what i thing it means!

  • dude chill an take a zanax

  • great man

  • i dont know why they arent more famous

  • i kno right

  • coz they arent mainstream, its just the way it goes

  • thesidinator is totally right. but still, this band in my mind is one of the best out there. the only mainstream music i like is chevelle and the foo fighters.

  • dakman29, holy shit dude i totally agree with u... i love foo fighters and chevelle... foo fighters are my favorite though an i love hurt to. rite on bro

  • lol yeah nothin takes the foo fighters..they are incredible.. then idk i love chevelle too and im not the biggest fan of the new hurt cd..it jst takes some time to get used to it

  • yea my uncle got me into the foo fighters an i have not looked bak... they are the favorite till i die, an chevelle is lke incredible live if u have not seen them but i havent listened to the new cd all the way through but there are some good songs an some bad that i have heard

  • because the world is full of idiots, who can only listen to generic crap that pollutes the air waves

  • hi...his voice is amazing! awesom band!!!

  • Loved Hurt for years FETHING AWESOME as the tanith say<3 Lifes to short to argue ppl, stop gaying up the internet, posting ur gay arguement where awesome good hurt comments go peace x

  • You make a good point.. although it might be taken better if you didn't degrade a group of people buy using gay in a negative context to make your point.

  • Great song... The best band I've ever known...

  • love this song, its awesomee, his scream towards the end :D phwoar. lol

    and seriously wow. to everyting below :/

    come to watch the vid and listen to the song, even tho in this case the vid is a still picture. meh

    great song, hurt are awesome XD

  • It has nothing to do with her intelligence. It was a mistake. Humans make them.

  • I never thought about it that way. Thanks for opening my eyes. By the way, it's "you're".

  • Hands down, this song is nauseating.

    Nauseating in a good way.

    Seriously, Hurt have found all the awesomeness they could find, stuffed it together into a song (as I come to think of it, 22 songs), and then recorded it.

    Five stars, amazing.

  • lol @ all of these kids talking about girlfriends breaking up with them and relating it to this song.

    Funny stuff.

  • U serious? Lol to all these kids? You're calling everyone kids when you're using lol as an insult? How old r u 10? Maybe 12?

  • no usrs? u lrn 2 englsh!? u kno nglis?

    I'm actually 17. Get an education.

  • and now you're typing retarded things! I never even said u couldn't speak english i just think if you're gonna insult everyone here u might as well use something other then lol that's just stupid. Thats like me saying lol to u sir for being retarded. So wam bam there's a plan... don't be stupid

  • Tho wam bam hurths the plan guyth!

    Quit being a faggot and talking to me, tool.

  • So by me talking to you, makes me a fag? That means you're gay... that explains the ths after hurt and guy. Grow a brain before u try and talk

    How about lets end it with don't use lol as insults... queer

  • No, actually, if you had any sense of logic, that would technically make anyone who talks to me gay, it wouldn't make ME gay. So the more you talk, the more you're a fag.

    Haha. I win. :)

  • well being that i wasnt gay before you started talking and i am now apparently, that means that you must be gay. You must not have allot of friends if all of them are gay. Wow from what u just said that means your parents must be gay too? Weird

    Read your own own shit and if u respond this then you're a nazi war criminal who likes takin dick in the ass....

    HAHA I WIN ASS HOLE!

  • he's singing to god morpheus, (morphene, but not neccesary that type of drug), the effect fades in time so doses must be increased, it has soothing effects, gets you sleepy... not a worry in the world

  • Seriously Hurt is kicks the ass of the sun! Almost every song can relate to a bad relationship. Iv been dealing with the worst heartbreak iv ever felt lately and hurt is definitely the band to listen to. From Alone with the Sea to Danse Russe and thne to this and those are only 3 songs! If your not a hurt fan and uv only heard a couple songs then listen to the rest of them cause they're the most powerful band iv ever heard!!!!

  • my gf cheated on me

  • the boy i like just asked out my other friend and im so hurt- so im listening 2 this song pretty much 40000 times and its helping...
