Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams

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
