Wrap your troubles in dreams

Send them all away

Put them in a bottle

And across the seas they'll stay

Speak not of misfortune

Speak not of your woes

Just steal yourself for holy death

Crouching by the door

Writhe and sway to music's pain

Searing with asides

Caress death 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

Purple is to yellow

As sunlight is to rain

Happiness and death you'll find

Loveliness in pain

Slash the golden whip it snaps

'Cross the lovers' sides

The earth trembles without remorse

Preparing for to die

Wrap your troubles in dreams

Send them all away

Put them in a bottle

And across the seas they'll stay

Salty ocean waves and sprays

Come crashing to the shore

Bullies kick and kill young loves

Down on barroom floors

The gleaming knife cuts early

Through the midnight air

Cutting entrails in it's path

Blood runs without care

Violence echoes through the land

And the heart of every man

The knife stabs existent wounds

pus runs through matted hair

Excrements 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
