CAGE THE ELEPHANT lyrics : "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
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


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

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

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
