Morgan by Steve Matthews published on 2022-03-07T02:48:24Z This is about the consequences of bullying. Morgan was 13, bullied at school mercilessly and relentlessly, until she committed suicide. When I read about the case years ago I found it distressing and later was moved to write this song. Don’t have a personal connection to what happened, I just found it really sad. They found her in the morning The sadness in her eyes remained They had taunted and they teased And broke her She died in her sleep Alone. She fought them off as long as she could They wore her down until the pain took… She begged everyone Rescue me from this pain. They found her in the morning The gladness in her heart erased The tragedy of Morgan Will haunt them Each night as they sleep Alone. She fought them off as long as she could They wore her down until the pain took… She begged everyone Rescue me from this pain. Morgan can you tell us where you are (The) life you lost was beautiful to us Morgan can you show us what to do (Your) life will shine a light for us from you. Morgan We miss you Morgan We miss you Morgan We miss you Where are you, today? We miss you. Morgan can you tell us where you are (The) life you had was beautiful to us Morgan can you show us what to do (Your) life will shine a light for us from you.

When I was a preschool teacher, I had a puppet I used to help angry and aggressive kids work through stuff. One kid bit the puppet on the head. Wonder where he is now. 2022-11-26T19:56:56Z Comment by Little Lone Waltz Such a sad story...beautiful vocals 2022-08-22T19:48:42Z Comment by Bachianer Nice.... 2022-08-04T12:46:24Z Comment by 𝐹𝓇𝒶𝓃𝓀 𝑀𝑒𝒽𝓁 Ha!

There is a great Peter Gabriel vibe that is quite magical. Thanks Steve for sharing such an important song on SC.

Both guitars and your voice provide a very moving perspective on this event. Excellent work! ;) 2022-04-14T07:53:06Z Comment by David Dunham The guitar effects and voicings are superb and deeply illustrative of the context of the song. I found the story about her for anyone wanting to know more about her brief but lovely life. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-85296/Suicide-girl-aged-13-bullied-6ft.html 2022-04-14T03:53:45Z Comment by David Dunham You did a beautiful job with this song, so sensitive, plaintive, and compelling in its subject. Morgan deserved better. 2022-04-14T03:44:23Z
