Meat Puppets - Forbidden Places lyrics

You said I shouldn't have gone
I don't know, I went ahead on anyway
Nighttime wore to dawn
I found my free will had gone away from me

Behind the masks that pass for faces
Hours are lost in forbidden places

Nowhere for me to run
Not that I feel like running anywhere anyway
Some things are clear at night
Then become confusing in the light of day

Within the darkness, behind the faces
Pioneers of forbidden places

Something I wouldn't have thought
Crept up from behind me
Now it's here to stay
Too real, although it's not
Couldn't have possibly been avoided anyway

The crazy landscapes behind the faces
Holding back the forbidden places

Abolished music, lost for ages
The living words of forbidden pages
Though dust has gathered on honest feeling
Forbidden truths through twilight stealing

And in the eyes of the listless faces
Glisten hints of forbidden places
