five clicks to midnight
the sky is filled with light
i hear the boom boom boom on my window
theres riders on the storm
and they echo as the wind blows

i close my eyes and hoof prints appear
white, red, black, and pale
four horsemen are drawing near

the first wears a crown and takes aim with his bow
representing your fear of the unknown
you dub other religious beliefs false hopes

the second bleeds life and hoists his sword upward
his gift is destruction and war is his world
man against man there has been so much blood
betraying the peace letting the evil flood

the third is dark like night a sign of disease
with scales in his hands he turns crops to weeds
when people are starving he sits idly by
gathering up their souls then once again he rides

fourth is the end this last pale horseman
the opposite of life the darkness to light
he meets you on the otherside when you die

another fabrication
for the purpose of control
if you disobey your religion
god has many ways to bring about the end of the world

earthquakes and hurricanes
famine and disease
pride, anger, envy,lust
gluttony, sloth and greed

who knows for sure whats on the other side
or if we truly have a soul
will bathing a baby in holy water
really make his life more full?
