[Verse 1]
Let it swirl around you now and let it fall apart
Put it back again and find every piece, but it's not the same
And you never can be sure just how it looked when you started
Turn around again now and do it all over and over

[Chorus]
Like a doll from a bad dream
When it's gone, worse dreams are born
Steaming in the line of fire, you're wild and free

[Verse 2]
Everybody in, sit down and keep on holding on
Pull your arms around black clouds drown and the rain is walking
Bodies in the ground by now down seven feet and rolling
Hanging on the tail of the sunrise till you can't let go

[Chorus]
Like a doll from a bad dream
When it's gone, worse dreams are born
Like a doll from a sad dream
When it's gone, worse dreams are born

[Chorus]
Like a doll from a bad dream
When it's gone, worse dreams are born
Like a doll from a sad dream
When it's gone, worse dreams are born

[Outro]
Worse dreams are born
Worse dreams are born
Worse dreams are born

One of the biggest rock bands out of Seattle, Soundgarden was formed in 1984 by singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell, lead guitarist Kim Thayil, and bassist Hiro Yamamoto. Matt Cameron became the band’s full-time drummer in 1986, while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990. While one of the creators of the Grunge alternative rock and the first to sign to a major label, they only rose to stardom once the genre was popularized by Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains in the early 90s. After achieving great success with 1994’s Superunknown, the band decided to call it quits three years later due to internal squabbles. Eventually they reunited in 2010, releasing new album King Animal two years later. Frontman Chris Cornell committed suicide in a Detroit hotel room on May 17, 2017. He was 52 years old.
