Symbol of eternal decay The final horseman has arrived The road paved conquest, war, & famine Death of atlas drawing near Pale reaper of the scythe Necromantic sorcery: Ending of life The land is now blighted, torment incited Disease of mind, body, soul What was teeming with life One by one, lights dimmed From the marching of apocalypse Four horsemen of global annihilation May-hap other worlds, witness from distant space Once bright & blue, now dark hue Diminishing lights, humanity's last stand Curtains closed, this final stage Lessons learned, of why love is sanctimonious

Four Horsemen - Pestilence
Symbol of eternal decay The final horseman has arrived The road paved conquest, war, & famine Death of atlas drawing near Pale reaper of the scythe Necromantic sorcery: Ending of life The land is now blighted, torment incited Disease of mind, body, soul What was teeming with life One by one, lights dimmed From the marching of apocalypse Four horsemen of global annihilation May-hap other worlds, witness from distant space Once bright & blue, now dark hue Diminishing lights, humanity's last stand Curtains closed, this final stage Lessons learned, of why love is sanctimonious
