Out back a monster wheres

A cloak of persian leather

Behind the TV screen

I've fallen to my knees

Just waiting for the fall

You know, yeah you got my back against the wall

   Blanket of silence

makes me want to sink my teeth in deep
         F#
Burn all the evidence

A fabricated disbelief
F#            F#(9)      C#        B         G#
Pull back the curtains take a look into your eyes
 F#           F#(9)        C#           B      G#
My tongue has now become a platform for your lies
