Help me decode this morse code into plain text. I can't solve it because it has no spaces.
Text version: ..-.-..--.-.-...-...-..---.--.....-....-. Ending Part Might be: -- -.-- ... . .-.. ..-. "myself" ??

2$\begingroup$ According to jbowman.com/remorse there are over a quadrillion possible space combinations for this code. Good luck to anyone solving this. $\endgroup$ – Excited Raichu Feb 5 at 15:03

$\begingroup$ Do we have any idea as to what it might say? $\endgroup$ – Hugh Feb 5 at 15:06

$\begingroup$ -- -.-- ... . .-.. ..-. This ending part is "Myself" $\endgroup$ – Huya Wachako Feb 5 at 15:32

2$\begingroup$ Morse code is generally impossible to solve without spaces unless you're very lucky with your guesses. $\endgroup$ – Deusovi♦ Feb 5 at 15:39

1$\begingroup$ @Deusovi: It shouldn't be too difficult to write a program to brute-force the possibilities. If we assume every word belongs to the dictionary, the vast majority of the quadrillion possibilities will be dropped early, making the search-space feasible. $\endgroup$ – BlueRaja - Danny Pflughoeft Feb 5 at 18:20

A bit gloomy but we can break it up this way
..
-.-./.-/-.
-.-/../.-../.-..
--/-.--/..././.-../..-.
which is
I can kill myself

1$\begingroup$ I just confirmed that using the jbowman link. Gloo-my. $\endgroup$ – Van Feb 5 at 15:52

There are many possibilities, but this seems to fit letter-by-letter, word-by-word, and it makes a grammatically valid sentence:
.. / -.-. .- -. -.-. . .-.. . -.. / -- -.-- ... . .-.. ..-.I / c a n c e l e d / m y s e l fI canceled myself
Hopefully that means something in context.
Method: Start at known letter boundaries (end, beginning, guess common words). Try all possibilities; attempt longest letters first, since they are rarest, and have the fewest possible follow-ups, so they are easier to rule out.
