Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams

Wrap your troubles in dreams
 Send them all away
 Put them in a bottle and
 Across the seas they'll stay
 Speak not of misfortunes
 Speak not of your woes
 Just steal yourself a holiday
 Crouching by the door
 Ride and sway to music's pain
 Searing with the sides
 Caress it with a lover's touch
 For it shall be your bride
 Wrap your troubles in dreams
 Send them all away
 Put them in a bottle
 And across the seas they'll stay
 Slash the golden whip, it slaps
 Across the lover's sides
 The earth trembles without remorse
 Preparing for to die
 Salty ocean waves and sprays
 Come crashing to the shore
 Bullies kick and kill young loves
 Down on barroom floors
 Wrap your troubles in dreams
 Send them all away
 Put them in a bottle
 And across the seas they'll stay
 Violence echoes through the land
 In heart of every man
 The knife stabs existent wounds
 Pulse runs through matted hair
 The gleaming knife cuts early
 Through the midnight air
 Cutting entrails in its path
 Blood runs without care
 Excrement filters through the brain
 Hatred bends the spine
 Filth covers the body pores
 To be cleansed by dying time
 Wrap your troubles in dreams
 Send them all away
 Put them in a bottle
 And across the seas they'll stay
