The Dark Horse

Tony36

The dark horse comes

Death is on it’s way

The dark horse comes

The rider brings dismay

He’s after my soul

He wont let go

 

The dark horse comes

I will not run

The dark horse comes

The death race has begun

He comes with hooves striking the stone

Sparks flare up within it’s path

He comes for the life

That is my own

 

The dark horse comes

It’s eyes are bloodshot red

The dark horse comes

The sight of which

Makes you dread

Fire flares from every opening

Blood flows free and clear

It is the thing

Of every fear

 

The dark horse comes

It rides through the night

The dark horse comes

What a troublesome sight

Every worst nightmare

However I can not help but stare

 

The dark horse comes

It’s hair midnight black

The dark horse comes

upon the ground it leaves no tracks

It moves with silent haste

It deals death

There is no waste

 

The dark horse comes

Whose rider is death
