behold a pale horse
behold a pale horse
upon whom Death rides
upon whom Death rides
behold a pale horse
behold a pale horse
and Hell follows behind
follows behind
and power was given unto them to kill
one quarter of earth one quarter of life
to slay with the savage beasts as they will
with hunger and famine and last with the knife
and when the fifth seal was opened at once
under the altar I saw the lost souls
who'd been slain for the word on God on their lips
in their hands they held the Dead Sea Scrolls
crying "How long, O Lord, holy and true
dost thou not judge and avenge our blood?
How long must we await for You,
our white robes stained with tears and with mud?"
and then it was said unto them amazed
that they should but rest and never ask why
of the prophecy for the end of all days
to inherit the earth and meekly die
behold a pale horse
behold a pale horse
upon whom Death rides
upon whom Death rides
behold a pale horse
behold a pale horse
and Hell follows behind
follows behind
