"Morpheus" lyrics - IAN HUNTER & THE RANT BAND

IAN HUNTER & THE RANT BAND
"Morpheus"

You walk thru the door, throw your clothes on the floor
Lie in bed and gaze up at the ceiling
Plugs are in your ears, tension disappears
And you're off to the land of healing

You slip and you slide, you sink further inside
Far away from the fast and the furious
Sleep can keep you warm, shelter from the storm
Deep in the arms of Morpheus

And walls start to fall,every wall must fall
As you break the last line of resistance
Songs you never wrote, you try to catch them as they float
And carry them back to existence

You drift into space, there's no time, there's no place
Your eyes have no face but they focus
There's no such thing as stress, there ain't no east or west
Deep in the arms of Morpheus

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge:]
The bells are ringing, don't open your eyes
Reality's singing, don't open your eyes
Nerves are tingling, don't open your eyes
Whatever you do, don't open your eyes

Back in your room, you'll be surfacing soon
To the tune of the morning chorus
And just another day but you wish that you could stay
Deep in the arms of Morpheus
Deep in the arms of Morpheus
Deep in the arms of Morpheus
