about

This song was inspired by the 1921 film "The Four Horsemen of the Apocolypse". This is Dave's eloquent take on it.

lyrics

Horsemen

Oh the horsemen they did come from hell
They rode the wind to take from life a name
In the hour after westerly
In a moment locked in reverie they came

And far across this tortured land
They swept just like the storm-born sand that
Chills the bone
And turns all flesh to stone
Turns all flesh to stone

Oh the horsemen they did come from hell
Their features bore the mark of Hades' smile
Their faces were a mask of death
Their sightless eyes scarcely beckoned to beguile

In a blaze of arms the flame of life
Extinguished by the fires of strife
Become but cold
As the story stays untold
The story stays untold

So cast your gaze to silence
Turn againt wall
Fear draws no distinction
As to whether great or small
Great or small

And for those who try to run away
Tomorrow is a dancing day
Which never arrives
For no-one survives
When the horsemen ride on by

They ride on by
(repeat)
