Not My Slave Lyrics

Oingo Boingo

With sadness in my heart and joy in my mind I thought about the ghosts that we've left behind With everyone around telling us what to do With deafening sound whisper I love you
The fire in your eyes, may it never go out The sweetness of your tears make it feel like night I see no escape from the roles we always play What do we have to prove on this judgment day?
And you're mine now but you're not my sister And you're mine now but you're not my slave And you're mine but you're not my child And you're mine now but you're not my slave
You're missin' the whole point, you're not my little pet Don't throw away your life, the game's not over yet I do not own your soul, don't want you in a cage I only want your heart to find that special place
You're missin' the whole point, you're not my little pet Don't throw away your life, the game's not over
You're mine but you're not my sister You're mine now but you're not my slave You're mine but you're not my child You're mine now but you're not my slave You're mine now but you're not my slave
With sand in my heart and clouds in my head I thought about us both and the lives we've led From pages in a book and pictures on a screen We make ourselves like clay from someone else's dream
One second you are cast just like stones at my feet But I am not a King please don't worship me With everyone around telling us what to do With deafening sound whisper I love you
You're missing the whole point, you're not my little pet Don't throw away your life, the game's not over yet I do not own your soul, don't want you in a cage I only want your heart to find that special place
You're mine now but you're not my sister You're mine now but you're not my slave You're mine now but you're not my child You're mine now but you're not my slave
You're mine now but you're not my sister You're mine now but you're not my slave You're mine but you're not my child You're mine now but you're not my slave
You're mine now but you're not my slave You're mine now but you're not my slave Ooh, but you're not my slave
