Lyrical inspiration: True by Ryan Cabrera (Lyrics at the end)
Sometimes, I just get so angry…I want to start hitting people. Like now. How DARE they stand there and talk about her like that. She's a woman! More than that, she's a human. Yeah, so, she's caliente. I can't argue with that, after all, I'm only a human too. But that's no way to treat her. I think someone needs to teach Randy and John a little respect.
Ah, who am I kidding. She probably doesn't even know my name, right? Well, she has to know my name, after all…I am a former champion. But she doesn't know me, not the me I want her to. I want to be the one who kisses those tears off of her cheeks when she's had a bad day. I want to be the one who sweeps her off of her feet and carries her away from all of the hurt and pain. I want to make everything okay.
She probably doesn't want some old, washed-up has been of a superstar to fight her battles for her, though. Someone that gorgeous has got to want someone a little younger…even if they are all jerks. The guys who wouldn't know a beautiful woman from a transvestite in a skirt. I wish I could just make her see how much she means to me.
I'm not myself anymore. I'm getting distracted in the ring because I want to be anywhere but there. I want to be in the back, talking to her. Seeing that smile that can light up a room. Hearing the laugh that gives me goose-bumps. Catching her scent as she walks past me hurriedly to get to the ramp on time. Everything about her makes me smile.
Sorry to have unloaded to you, my trusty four walls. But at least I know you won't tell her, right?
True by Ryan CabreraI won't talk
I won't breathe
I won't move till you finally see
That you belong with me
You might think I don't look
But deep inside the corner of my mind
I'm attached to you
I'm weak, it's true
Cause I'm afraid to know the answer
Do you want me too?
Cause my heart keeps falling faster
chorus
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
It's time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true
You don't know what you do
Every time you walk into the room
I'm afraid to move
I'm weak, it's true
I'm just scared to know the ending
Do you see me too?
Do you even know you met me?
Chorus
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
It's time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true
I know when I go
I'll be on my way to you
The way that's true
chorus
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
It's time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true
