Back Against The Wall

Tonight I'll have a look and try to find my face again

Buried beneath this house, my spirit screams and dies again

Out back a monster wears a cloak of Persian leather

Behind the TV screen I've fallen to my knees



I said you got me where you want me again and I can't turn away

I'm hanging by thread and I'm feelin' like a fool

I'm stuck here in-between the shadows of my yesterday

I want to get away

I need to get away



Blanket of silence makes me want to sink my teeth in deep

Burn all the evidence of fabricated disbelief

Pull back the curtains, took a look into your eyes

My tongue has now become a platform for your lies



I said you got me where you want me again and I can't turn away

I'm hanging by thread and I'm feelin' like a fool

I'm stuck here in-between the shadows of my yesterday

I want to get away

I need to get away



Now, you know

Yeah, you got my back against the wall

Oh god, I ain't got no other place to hide

Chained down, like a sittin' duck just waiting for the fall

You know, yeah, you got my back against the wall



Deep in the jungle camouflaged by all the fallen leaves

A hand holds up the sky while shamefully I make my plea

The alters callin' but my legs won't seem to stand

Guess I'm a coward scared to face the man I am



I said you got me where you want me again and I can't turn away

I'm hanging by thread and I'm feelin' like a fool

I'm stuck here in-between the shadows of my yesterday

I want to get away

I need to get away



Now, you know

Yeah, you got my back against the wall

Oh god, I ain't got no other place to hide

Chained down, like a sittin' duck just waiting for the fall

You know, yeah, you got my back against the wall



Now, you know

Yeah, you got my back against the wall

Oh god, I ain't got no other place to hide

Chained down, like a sittin' duck just waiting for the fall

You know, yeah, you got my back against the wall
