cage the elephant - back against the wall (unpeeled) lyrics

[verse 1]
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

[pre+chorus]
i said, you’ve got me where you want me again and i can’t turn away
i’m hanging by a thread and i’m feeling like i’ll fall
i’m stuck here in between these shadows of my yesterday
i want to get away, i need to get away

[verse 2]
blanket of silence makes me want to sink my t++th in deep
burn all the evidence of fabricated disbelief
pull back the curtains, took a look into your eyes
my tongue has now become a platform for your lies

[chorus]
now you know, yeah, you’ve 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’ve got my back against the wall
[verse 3]
deep in the jungle, camouflaged by all the fallen leaves
a hand holds up the sky while, shamefully, i make my plea
the altar’s calling, but my legs won’t seem to stand
guess i’m a coward scared to face the man i am

[chorus]
now you know, yeah, you’ve 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’ve got my back against the wall
now you know, yeah, you’ve 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’ve got my back against the wall
