The Rise Of The Fall

Screams shatter the silence of night
And pierce the souls of the innocent

Angels weep and hot tears they fall
Each drop that lands like acid burns

Four horsemen ride across the land
Unimaginable is the woe they bring

Deep in caverns where no sun shines
People their faces they try to hide

All around them hell breaks loose
And the dead from graves arising

What was no longer is, gone is perception
Up is down and down is up, supreme reigns confusion

Carrion birds, millions blacken the sky
Their cries bring terror rising

No place to hide, nowhere is safe
Oh woe to me and woe to you
