Cover art for The Jester Race lyrics by In Flames

some of the jester race, whoracle, colony, and parts of clayman are all about the future and how its going to be, the jester race is from a futuristic point of view, whoracle is about the end of the world as it is is now, colony is about "The new world" and clayman is excerpts from all parts of it.

"Sunwind strokes the ElectroHeart, ignition roars through the corridors, stream launching the binary vessels"

Vanities in extreme formations ride into tomorrow´s rigid great face The Machinery outlives the futile scripts of our dying jester race"

the electro heart is referring to pacemakers and the futile scripts refer to books and how they are being gotten rid-of. the sun-wind is clearly electricity

Offering the tokens, the reliced idols to the heirs of the newly raped ground inferior even to the transparent winds

  • lesser in motion and sound

    this part is clear,

Gala impaled on their horns and lances the fumes from her body give chase as the strong of blind men savour the scent, dream-dead from Prosaic and hate

Gaia literally was the goddes of the earth and this part is about how "The jester race" or humans destroy the earth and take pride in it.
