Ball of Clay Lyrics


My creation's complete

And it's perfectly done

Made without a flaw

It's my chance to lead

And I will take charge

Lay down my own laws

Not given a choice

Or a single decision

Give into my suppression

Bound and tied

By the words that I say

Now, you're my new obsession

I will make you do as I say

My commandments you will obey

It is me to whom you will pray

'Cause you're my ball of clay

It's the same as your very first day

I won't have it any other way

You won't know it anyway

That you're my ball of clay

For years I've been waiting

To shape my own clay

Waiting to be in command

Spending my whole life

Searching for my own minion

Controlled by my hand

But now that I have you

I can do what I want

You are mine to keep

I'll teach you my ways

And by them, you'll live

It's through you that I weep

I will make you do as I say

My commandments you will obey

It is me to whom you will pray

'Cause you're my ball of clay

It's the same as your very first day

I won't have it any other way

You won't know it anyway

That you're my ball of clay

Will you ever realize

That I'm feeding you these lies?

Beating them deep into your brain,

Slowly closing your mind.

You're living in a cell.

My creation, your own Hell.

Forever in my grasp.

Until the day you die

My beliefs are bestowed upon you

Taught to believe the words I tell you

Not knowing right from wrong

You inhale my words

Your mind is what I stole

A deathly grip; it's you I control

My thoughts and beliefs, my dos and don't s

To you I transfer

Molding your fragile mind

Twisting it, just like mine

Never given the privilege

To think for yourself

Death to your innocence

I break through your hindrance

Manipulated I want you all for myself

As for now, you think you're free

A closer look and you will see

You're too weak to see

My hate's obscured by lust

Seduced by me

You are deceived

Altering what you perceive

You can't even think for yourself

You have no choice to trust

You're vulnerable, sensitive

Influenced, tentative

Cheated out of your free will

I feel no sympathy

In this world, I am king

You're wrapped up tight

Under my wing

Slowly, I shaped your whole life

I did it subtly

You are mine now

There is no way out

This game is for me to play

You are my ball of clay!

Ball of clay!
