Back Against The Wall by Cage The Elephant

Tonight I'll have a look
And try to (1)________ my face again
Buried beneath this house
My spirit screams 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 (2)__________ you (3)________ me again
And I can't (4)________ away
I'm hangin' by a thread
And I'm feelin' (5)________ a fool
I'm stuck (6)________ in between
The shadows of my yesterday
I wanna get away
I (7)________ to get away
Blanket of silence
Makes me wanna 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 (8)________________ for (9)________ lies
I (10)________ you
Got me where you (11)________ me again
And I can't turn away
I'm hangin' by a thread
And I'm feelin' like a fool
I'm stuck (12)________ in between
The shadows of my yesterday
I (13)__________ 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 (14)____________ leaves
A hand holds up the sky
While shamefully I (15)________ my plea
The alter's callin'
But my legs won't (16)________ 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 hangin' by a thread
And I'm feelin' like a fool
I'm stuck (17)________ in between
The shadows of my yesterday
I (18)__________ get away
I (19)________ to get away
Now you know
Yeah you got my (20)________ against the wall
Oh God
I ain't got no other place to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin' duck (21)________ waitin' for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my (22)________ 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' (23)________ just waitin' for the fall
You know
Yeah you got my back (24)______________ the wall
