Can't Happen Here Lyrics

Late last night I tripped in
One thousand voiceless faces were chasing me
I ran through the air as thick as glue
Through night as black as hate my spirit fled
Through branches filled with thorns
my eyes bled and bled
How could I ever hope to win this race
When everytime I close my eyes I see your face
It just can't happen here (repeat)

Well there's some stuff missing above, so here's the full first verse:

Late last night I tripped in violent shades of green One thousand voiceless faces were chasing me I ran through air as thick as glue From a thousand fucking faces that all looked like you


And this song is about having a bad trip on acid. That and Chris Hall's ex... the two combined can't make for a pleasant experience.
