Cover art for Clayman lyrics by In Flames

hi, i'm new here, i'm from argentina and sorry for my english, it's not good... the thing is that i feel identified with this song, cuz i'm living things that i can express with this song. i think that it talks about leaving everything flow, i had too many bad times in my life and i started being somebody that i'm really not. leaving things like that, being happy even between really bad situatios. accept that everything is the same, that the good things and the sad ones come and go all the time. so i become of clay to mold to any situation without allow it to affect me. but i feel afraid sometimes cuz people look at me like a person without feelings, and sometimes i feel sad cuz now that i dont leave bad situatios to throw me down i still see my friends and the people that surrounds me getting sad for the things i leave behind all the time. i try to teach them how to drop all that sadness but i'm afraid cuz i still know that i'm not being myself, that its all a lie. and i wish somebody to realize that i'm a lie and talk to me about that cuz i need to discharge all the things i'm keepin into my heart at the same time that i dont want the people to realize that i'm that. i dont think that this songs means that, but make me feels that cuz i'm living it.

What you wrote really hit me in the heart. It's exactly how I felt a couple of months ago, and I havent done shit about it, not it literally feels like I've drowned and nothing means anything anymore. I try everyday to accomplish what I could accomplish but I just dont have the energy for anything anymore. Noone around me understand what Im going through I just want to rip my head off so people can see that im just fake, it's not me.
