| 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. | |

| Plastic people are people who do and act based on what other people will think of them. They are the people from Ordinary Story, cynics who put their own goals ahead of being moral and kind to other people. Being success = power in our shitty world. success is defined by the thirst for power. Anders is the sculpture made of clay, he can shape himself however he wants, does what he wants, dresses how he wants, and does whats right. Its such a simple thing to do. I'm seeing sarcasm in "I have to find the path to where it all begins To teach the world my supernatural art" its such a simple thing but noone is doing it, we all need to do waht we want,a nd what we think is right. Not whats defined by other people, governments, religions or the media says. Just be morally correct. I love how all in flames lyrics tie in with each other. If everyone followed these lyrics the world would be a nice place. In flames rox0rz | |

| The sculpture made of clay represents people who are worried about conforming and what people think of them. I think "teach the world my supernatural art" is Anders sarcastic way of saying all you have to do is be yourself. | |
