Back Against The Wall by Cage The Elephant

Tonight I'll have a look
And try to find my face again
Buried (1)______________ this house
My spirit (2)______________ and dies again
Outback 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 (3)__________ get away
I need to get away
Blanket of silence
Makes me (4)__________ sink my teeth in deep
Burn all the evidence
A fabricated disbelief
Pull (5)________ the curtains
Took a (6)________ 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 (7)__________ (8)________ in between
The (9)______________ of my yesterday
I wanna get away
I need to get away
Now you know
Yeah you got my back (10)______________ the wall
Oh God
I ain't got no other place to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin' (11)________ just waitin' for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my back against the wall

Deep in the jungle
Camouflaged by all the (12)____________ leaves
A (13)________ 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
I (14)________ you
Got me where you want me again
And I can't (15)________ away
I'm hangin' by a thread
And I'm feelin' (16)________ a fool
I'm (17)__________ here in between
The shadows of my yesterday
I wanna get away
I need to get away
Now you know
Yeah you got my back (18)______________ 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 (19)________ against the wall

Now you know
Yeah you got my back (20)______________ the wall
Oh God
I ain't got no other (21)__________ to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin' duck (22)________ waitin' for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my back against the wall
