lyrics

What's real, what's made up
I'm laid up in the
squared circle
In a business where gimmicks
are really just physics
just to hurt you

Invert you and flip you off
and on with disbelief
Heavy is the Hart in
Montreal that has to leave

Unscripted fiction
I break character
in front of folks
as my catchphrases
are now all they quote

But they don't know
that controversy hurt me
down to my circuitry
and everything you see
standing here
is just me

It's just me
All you see
is really who I am
All you see
is really who I am

It's just me
All you see
is really who I am
All you see
is really who I am

It's just me
over your YouTube screen, quick
Talking about how
confidence is stripped
like championships

Courage to live my dreams
as home became nightmares
Image of her bawling
keeps me from “Still Balling” here

Where 4th walls
become a steel cage
Hell in a Cell, son,
the heart break, kid,
is pain

I say to mankind
that gender is
never scripted
and those they praise
are not really that gifted, yes

I've seen the machoest of men
become Quakers
when faced in front of the
pall bearers and undertakers

So weak, unable to
break cane cracked
Life's a Survivor Series
until we're faced
with that casket match

It's just me
All you see
is really who I am
All you see
is really who I am

It's just me
All you see
is really who I am
All you see
is really who I am

Damn, it's just me...Damn, it's just me...don't you see...

Damn, I would stare
at the Shanghai lights
like Titantrons coming on
before heavyweight fights

Intercontinental delights
until the places we feel
become unreal
Hard to tell who's a
face or heel

In this war that raw,
a curtain call where
real life situations
can cause a pause
in manipulation

Diamond Dallas Page
we got a lot in common
we both lost a woman
with her name
It's stone cold
this rock bottom

Fans clamor
for your downfall
but then act like it's
all jokes during curtain calls

Well, this is my curtain call
for this Ironman match
went on too long
now the show stops

I've lost my smile...
