Gone Like Rain Lyrics - The Fabled City - Tom Morello

With downcast eyes the multitudes set 

as the cattle cars pulled along the rusty tracks 

one raised his hand in the fading light 

said excuse me sir this doesn't seem right 

and now he's gone like whispers gone like rain 

gone like the faithful while the faithless remain 

gone like the stone the builder refused 

gone and overdue 

There's a river in Texas with a strong undertow 

no one crosses it to freedom, no one pans for gold 

its waters are clear but its waters are cold 

its current is swift and no one knows where it goes

it's just gone like whispers gone like rain 

gone like the faithful while the faithless remain 

gone like the stone the builder refused 

gone and overdue 

gone and overdue 

[harmonica solo] 

When a cool desert don't appear on no map 

coyote's scream rips the night in half 

he hears the devil coming 

footsteps on the path 

so he chews off his own leg to get out of the trap

and he's gone like whispers gone like rain 

gone like the faithful while the faithless remain 

gone like the stone the builder refused 

gone and overdue 

gone and overdue
