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 falen 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
