Human Ground

The Black Rainbow

Human Ground


The bride was fair and frankly sweet 
The rising moon started the feast 
Don't tease the dragon, let it sleep 
You shall regret, time to retreat 
A wise man warned you didn't care 
An angel called you didn't hear 
A prayer prayed in holy fear 
The seeds of doom sprouted in tears 

[1st chorus] 
Thorns in the pillow 
Sleep all the night long 
Under the weeping willow 
The orgy goes on 

Anger of gods disturbs the dreams 
The worn out land under the weed 
Unbearable thirst makes you see 
The source is dry, sand in the stream 
Don't drink this sand! No you can't hear 
There's pain to stand, but you don't care 
Can you get up and take the spare 
No it's too late to revive your steer 

[2nd chorus] 
The laughing window 
Dead toads on your grave 
One desperate bellow 
Numb in frosted flame 

Eternal rapture let it flow 
Who stole the sun - the black rainbow? 
Enchanted mind can't let you go 
Afraid of the black rainbow 
Descendants have paid for your sins 
The king is dead, long live the king 
A feeble man in silver shoes 
Preaching the end of bloom 
Leave us alone we have no time 
So much to do before the night 
Someone has found the hidden wand 
In misery god waits the dawn 

[1st and 2nd chorus]
