A glimpse into the shadows
Darkness falls on Hallow ground, screams of demons a haunting sound, step by step and stride by stride the Four Horsemen now do ride.

Pestilence, Famine, War and Death, all four heaving icy breath, as they ride their evil gathers, skeletal horses spewing poisonous lathers.

The valleys shadow's swell and grow, heaving up with pain and woe, devilish laughter resounds crystal clear, loosed on earth are mankinds fears.

The gate which was locked now swings open, a fallen Angel emblazoned eyes are smokin', now set free to burn the wind, the ride of his Horsemen begins again.

Thought and action with quickness they bound springing forth from holy ground, Angelic spirits whispering heavenly cries a haunting melody felt in their sighs.

Rumbling in like a dark moonless tide, desperate souls on Death's right they stride, empty hatred in black lifeless eyes, spewing agony and endless lies.

Spirits gather on a ghostly plain, dark shapes on mounts with fiery manes, no more time for meaningless thought, humanities battle here will be fought.

Clashing spirits, heavens fury unleashed as God's Champion steps through the breech, horns are blaring all through the field standing firm he clashes sword against shield.

With a legion of Angels at his side, against a demon army they collide, sounds of war are all you can hear, the end for all draws ever so near.

Light and Dark do here intertwine screams of spirits and humans combine, the Horsemens Legions an endless sea, writhing masses of Deaths misery.

Hoards of demons overwhelmingly great for on this day sealed is their fate, human freewill and souless crime has made this day the end of our time.
