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 hangin' by a 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 alook 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 hangin' by a thread and I'm feelin' like a fool
|
I'm stuck here right 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 sitting 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 alter's callin'
|
But my legs won't seem to stand
|
Guess I'm a coward
|
Scared to face the man I am
|
|
