You're probably kidding, but it's not meant to be taken literally. "Deceived by my eyes, and all I was told I should see, opinions not mine, the person they taught me to to be". They seem to be having an identity crisis. "Inside me a light was turned on, and then I was alive". By turning away from the direction they have had forced on them, they are rejecting a world of lies and misdirection. It's actually rather appropriate as a follow-up to "Christian, At Last, You're On Your Own!" I was kidding. Still, it's fun to discuss these things. Figured you were just joking.

It's a crying shame no one used this theme. They should repackage Bo Dallas as IRS Jr, but he's more of a young, cocky debt collector, wearing flashy suits and constantly on his phone to clients, and he uses this music. Or cheese collector. Have Bo Dallas' cheddar. He thinks life is funny.

I always heard Matt Hardys theme to say "I can slam a tomato...off a washing machine, yeah".
Anyway, a few years ago I went to a show in Huntington WV and the band that sings Big Shows theme was there...but I didn't know it was them until the song started. When the song started I booed. Hevily.

Speaking of sinister versions of songs, that reminds me. "Blood drips from your camera." Like the song a lot and all but... Man, Smoke & Mirrors had pretty sinister lyrics anyway, it just got goofy trying to make them more violent and dark. Yeah but the singer for the original Smoke and Mirrors kinda had one of those kiddie pop punk sounding voices. It was good enough for a comedy gimmick like Dashing, but not so much for someone meant to be a more serious character. Although I don't like the current version, I understand why the changes were needed. I heard it said the original Dashing Cody Rhodes theme sounded like the third song you hear during the credits of some cheesy '80s teen comedy. So, it was supposed to be hokey; they want you to think of Corey Feldman suddenly making a run-in.

In "Real American" there's a line that goes "Courage is the thing that keeps us free". Nice little thought, but for the longest time I didn't know what the full lyric was. So I would sing "Freedom is the thing that keeps us free", which I feel is only slightly more pandering than "Courage is the thing that keeps us free".
