CHILD OF CLAY
JIMMIE RODGERS

INTO THE DARKNESS HE WAS SENT
BY PARENTS WHO WERE IGNORANT
TIED DOWN TO HIS MOTHER'S STRINGS
UNABLE TO BE ANYTHING
PUZZLED BY THE THINGS HE HEARS
HIS QUESTIONS FALL ON THEIR DEAF EARS
THE FATHER THINKING WORK COMES FIRST
AIN'T GOT THE TIME TO QUENCH A THIRST

ONCE HE WAS A CHILD, A BEAUTIFUL CHILD
A CHILD OF CLAY SHAPED AND MOLDED
INTO WHAT HE IS TODAY
BUT WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THIS CHILD OF CLAY

GOING OUT INTO THE STREET
AT NIGHT THE ANSWERS HE MAY MEET
WITH SICK AND TWISTED MINDS HE SHARES
THE SEARCHING QUESTIONS HIS HEART BEARS
AND FROM THE DREGS THE ANSWERS FIND
THEIR WAY INTO HIS SUPPLE MIND
IN TIME THE PLANTED SEEDS WILL GROW
INTO A TWISTED VINE BELOW

ONCE HE WAS A CHILD, A BEAUTIFUL CHILD
A CHILD OF CLAY SHAPED AND MOLDED
INTO WHAT HE IS TODAY
BUT WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THIS CHILD OF CLAY

AND NOW HIS AIMLESS DAYS BEGIN
TO DRIFT INTO SORDID SIN
AND SOON HIS DISLIKE TURNS TO HATE
AS THE STAMP OF LIFE SEALS HIS FATE
AND SO THE NIGHT CONCEALS HIS NAME
AND THE DAY SLEEP OFF HIS SHAME
DEPRIVED OF LOVE AND WROUGHT BY FEAR
A FEELING THAT THE END IS NEAR

ONCE HE WAS A CHILD, A BEAUTIFUL CHILD
A CHILD OF CLAY SHAPED AND MOLDED
INTO WHAT HE IS TODAY
BUT WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THIS CHILD OF CLAY

old correspondent firefang here with a new name and lots of new pieces. if you're ever around drop me a comment.
:iconkodama:
Hey there. It's been too long since I've heard anything from you! Where have you disappeared to?

Well, I just thought I'd drop by. Take care. :)
:iconspyed:
Have you ever had a dream, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world?

What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire deviant life, that there's something wrong with the story. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad.

You take the blue pill, the story ends. Your browser closes and you believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill, you stay in wonderland. And, I show you how deep the rabbit hole goes.

I offer only the truth, nothing more.

Take: The Red Pill
Take: The Blue Pill

Fella Point Right spyed, nobody has ever done this before.
Ninja Point Right I know. That's why it's going to work.

Do not try and bend the spoon ...
