Alone I Break
I can’t believe what I just saw. Angel…buried Nero. My partner is dead. I have no chance at winning now…no chance…
“You did it, Angel. You did Burns’ dirty work once again. You won before the match even started. You buried my partner. You took away the one team that had any chance at beating you. And now…all that is left is me. Who will be my partner now? Can I find Harold at Steve’s sister’s house and ask him to pull two matches and come help me? Can I ask him to brave a Death Cage before his title defense just to help me? No…I can’t. I have no friends in this place, you knew that…you knew I was an outcast and now you’ve backed me against a wall.and alone I break.”
Pick me up
been bleeding too long
Right here, right now
I'll stop it somehow
I will make it go away
can't be here no more
Seems this is the only way
I will soon be gone
these feelings will be gone
these feelings will be gone

Indeed things look very bad for me right now…In my hotel room I am packing, preparing for the Pay Per View. I hear the phone ring…
“Hello?”
“I’m sorry Mr. Bates; I’ve been trying to reach you all night.”
“I’m sorry; I just got back from Collision. Who is this?”
“This is the hospital in Wisconsin. I’m afraid your wife just got her memory back…she’s on suicide watch and tried to assault some of the staff.”
“Did she say anything?”
“Kill Burns.”
I hung up the phone. My mind is racing. My wife insane, Burns did this to her, she wants revenge. My partner is dead and buried, killed by Angel, my other opponent. The odds are stacked against me and suddenly I feel my mind slip to desperate thoughts of a desperate man.

Now I see the times they change
leaving doesn't seems so strange
I am hoping I can find
where to leave my hurt behind
All this **** I seem to take
all alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?

Does this make me not a man?
I am a man. I will not go down without a fight; even alone I will fight to the bitter end in the Death Cage. I stop packing and grab my briefcase.
“Burns…do you know what is inside this? Do you? Inside this briefcase is barbed wire which I will wrap around and bring to the Death Cage with me. And I also have lighter fluid and a lighter in here. This is your fate, Burns. You faked your leg injury due to a “mental illness”? Then you destroy my wife’s memory and bring me to the dark side just to get the adrenaline you need to keep the imaginary pain away? I cannot believe you, Burns. You claim to be a “good guy” when you are the worst kind of evil in the world. You are a LIAR…and inside this briefcase is how I handle liars…it is how I prove I am still a man.”
Shut me off
I am ready,
Heart stops
I stand alone
Can't be on my own
I am ready,
Heart stops
I stand alone
Can't be on my own
Soon I will wrap the barbed wire around this briefcase. Seven days and I will be standing in the Death Cage with two opponents and no partner. Soon I will be standing alone…against all odds…no matter what.
“The doctor said my wife’s only words were to kill you. That is not what she would normally say, Burns. You realize the things you took from her. By her memory loss you broke her. You broke her mind, and now she wants you dead. She’s never wanted another soul hurt for any reason in her whole life; it’s why she protested me be a wrestler, especially when she found I won the Xtreme Championship. But here I am, going into the Death Cage and my wife, through insanity you brought upon her, finally condones any actions I give. And within the Death Cage…all that awaits is your demise, Burns. I must avenge my wife. I must avenge her PAIN, and her SUFFERING.”
Am I going to leave this place?
Yes I will leave this hotel. I will move on and skip my trip to visit my now insane wife. I will move on, to the place where I must go to prepare for my final battle with Burning Angels.
What is it I'm running from?
Is there nothing more to come?
Is there nothing more to come?
“Angel, you got rid of one half of Perfect Freaks, but for his sake, I must still show up. I must still give my all! I must still WIN! Despite all odds, I must win!”

Is it always black in space?
Am I going to take its place?
Is it always black in space?

“The blackness is encroaching around me, you say you’ve become the monster I said you were…and now you’re unleashing the monster within me. I cannot believe my wife said those things, and now the world is crushing in around me. Seven days…”
Am I going to leave this race?
I guess god's up in this place?
I guess god's up in this place?
God doesn’t exist, what has happened proves this. Angel is not God, he is only a man. And men can bleed, men can hurt, men can be KILLED. And soon…

What is it that I've become?
Is there something more to come?
Is there something more to come?
“The beginning of the end has begun. Alone I break, and alone I become the monster you all saw within me when I was Xtreme Champion. The monster that took out Harold is back…the Death Cage will be HELL for me. I may not walk out alive, but I will make sure I take you both down with me…Nero…”
I crumble into myself. I crumble and I cry, holding the briefcase. The phone rings again. I neglect to answer it. The ring gets louder…somehow…as if something has possessed it. I wait, it rings louder again. I answer.
“NOT DEAD!”
The phone is hung up…I know that voice…I know…PERFECT FREAKS are not DEAD. And though Alone I Broke…I am not TRULY ALONE…
