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 a 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

Chorus
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 waitin' 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

Chorus
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 waitin' for the fall
You know, yeah you got my back against the wall

guitar solo

Chorus
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 waitin' for the fall
You know, yeah you got my back against the wall
