Come the Horsemen

Here we are at the end of the day
What do you want me to do?
What do you want me to say?
Something reassuring or sound?
Well, you picked the wrong kind of clown
Come the Horsemen come this way
Come the Horsemen come this day
With words of wisdom, and words of woe
The hands of friends, the knives of foes
Lower the bridge, open the gates
Let’s climb the tower, watch and wait
Come the Horsemen, come this way
Come the Horsemen, come this day
All you dreamers, all you schemers too
All you saints and sinners
All you wise men and fools
A wind is blowing, the storm will burst
Can you hear their laughter without mirth?
All words of warning — you’ll never heed
With your snouts in the trough
With your friends in greed
Can you hear the hooves' thunder coming this way
Across your wasteland and you’re their prey
Come the Horsemen, come this way
Come the Horsemen, come this day
