Artifacts Of The Black Rain Lyrics

The song Artifacts Of The Black Rain is performed by In Flames in the album named Jester Race: Black Ash Inheritance in the year 2002 .

Staring there, leaning to the city moon
Casting silhouettes tall to grip her white rooms
The black clad voyeur in his black clad masque
In the serpentine sun of tragedy basked

Stood there cursing at the soul dead ma*s
With their fabled illusions, vain dreams that pa*sed
Splinters of a life rushing by in the whirl
A lone silent warrior in a fantasy world

He cried for night but night could not come
So swept in the shroud of misanthrope, he went away
And fed the empty galleries
With the artifacts of the black rain
Sunken into the shadows with a dry sardonic smile
He made the footprints a part of his heart
To rouse a sacred confrontation

Stood at the carving on the monument telling lies
Digging of the earth, making friends with the soil
As the all mother rises and bares her bleeding thighs
He disappears into her cold, icy womb
