Back Against The Wall by Cage The Elephant

Tonight I'll have a look
And try to (1)________ my face again
Buried (2)______________ this house
My spirit (3)______________ and (4)________ again
Outback a (5)______________ wears
A cloak of Persian leather
Behind the TV screen
I've fallen to my knees
I said you
Got me (6)__________ you want me again
And I can't turn away
I'm hangin' by a thread
And I'm feelin' (7)________ a fool
I'm stuck here in between
The shadows of my yesterday
I wanna get away
I need to get away
Blanket of silence
Makes me wanna (8)________ my teeth in deep
Burn all the evidence
A fabricated disbelief
Pull (9)________ the curtains
Took a (10)________ into (11)________ eyes
My (12)____________ has now become
A (13)________________ for (14)________ lies
I (15)________ you
Got me where you (16)________ 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 wanna 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 (18)__________ to hide
Chained down
Like a sittin' duck (19)________ 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 alter's callin'
But my legs won't (20)________ 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 here in between
The shadows of my yesterday
I (21)__________ get away
I (22)________ to get away
Now you know
Yeah you got my (23)________ 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 (24)______________ 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
