Blessed Are the Dead

[Intro]

A great sign appeared

Under the stars and the moon

Sounds of galloping horses

On clouds of lightning and thunder

A dark gathering storm

To scorch the earth for many generations

A nuclear winter

Worse than any cold or holy war

[Verse 1]

A white horse on the clouds of death

A red warhorse to end all wars

A pale horse and pestilence led by

A black horse with famine and scales

The doctrine of hatred

Nation will rise against nation

Wash me in blood

And let me be the firstborn of the dead

[Pre-Chorus]

A crowned rider with arrows and bow

A red rider with a great fiery sword

Plagues come from the one colored death

Horror and apocalypse follows

[Chorus]

Ride, won't you four Horsemen ride again

Before this kingdom's blown to kingdom come?

Ride, I hold fast to what I believe

Till I see my name in stone

Blessed are the dead

[Post-Chorus]

That they may rest

[Verse 2]

A white horse on the clouds of death

A red warhorse to end all wars

A pale horse and pestilence led by

A black horse with famine and scales

The synagogue of Satan

Nation will rise against nation

Wash me in blood and

Let me be the firstborn of the dead

[Pre-Chorus]

A crowned rider with arrows and bow

A red rider with a great fiery sword

Plagues come from the one colored death

Horror and apocalypse follows

[Chorus]

Ride, won't you four Horsemen ride again

Before this kingdom's blown to kingdom come?

Ride, I hold fast to what I believe

Till I see my name in stone

Blessed the dead
