I'm Not The Man I Used To Be - Fine Young Cannibals

I'm supposed to shake his hand and walk all smiling Make believe that you don't mean a thing to me I'm supposed to offer my congratulations but I'm not the man that I supposed to be I'm supposed to make believe I won't miss you And forget the times you held me tenderly I'm supposed to tell the world it never happened But I'm not the man that I supposed to be I'd rather stand up and fight for what's mine And to give you up it's just too much for me So if I don't shake his hand and come out fighting That I'm not the man that I supposed to be [ Piano ] So if I don't shake his hand...

Have you ever wondered about our old Nu-metal friends and what became of them? Turns out I saw them a couple of days ago They were laughing and drinking and smoking and singing I'd rather not, let's just say I'm starving myself I don't want no savior baby, I just wanna have a good time Oh, oh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be And they said, "Hey Nate, yeah, it's been a while, Are you gonna sing?" And I began to smile and I said "You should've seen me a couple of years ago, I was laughing and drinking and smoking and singing." It's such a gas when you bring up the past I don't want no savior baby, I just wanna get it out Oh oh, oh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be Oh oh, oh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be At least I'm not as sad as I used to be Just get it out Doo doo doo Wooh ooh At least I'm not as sad as I used to be And they said we would've seen you two years ago Had you stuck around or come out to a show But youth's taken over by rock and roll While we were laughing and drinking and smoking and singing So I left, that is it That's my life, nothing is sacred I don't keep friends, I keep acquainted I'm not a prophet but I'm here to profit That's all, I'm gone! That's my life, nothing is sacred I don't fall in love, I just fake it I don't fall in love, I don't fall in love

I'll always be the one who messed up Every time I will have your back just so you know Just want to hear the word The word that had me falling Smash the mirror cause don't like what it shows every time The storyline, mine was never been sold What am I supposed to do? What happens if I do it? Now I'm holding onto something and I dont know why I need to step out, and find myself a way out I wish that I could rewind To find myself, who I am There could be something that I should fix But I don't know how Seems like I'm not attractive to you I don't mind Didn't ask you to turn back around Cause I'm used to it I don't know what's in my mind Want to feel like I'm in Las Vegas Find the best part of me In a starring role Maybe that can change your mind Now I'm holding onto something and I dont know why I need to step out, and find myself a way out I wish that I could rewind To find myself, who I am Oh yeah I don't care about all, and I don't know why How will I face it and Throughout all these things I wish that I could rewind To find myself, who I am Woah Oh Oh Woah Oh Oh Woah Oh Oh Woah Oh Oh It's just a wall that people have created But I want to break it down into dust Now I'm just a man with a broken heart Try to feel good in a mess Now I'm holding onto something and I dont know why I need to step out, and find my self way out I wish that I could rewind To find myself, who I am Oh yeah I don't care about all and I don't know why How will I face you and Who will save me now? I wish that I could rewind To find myself, who I am Woah Oh Oh Woah Oh Oh It's something that I used to be Woah Oh Oh Woah Oh Oh
