  Lyrics :
   1. By the last breath the four winds blow
      Better raise your ears
      The sound of hooves knock at your door
      Lock up your wife and children now
      It's time to wield the blade
      For now you've got some company
  
   Chorus :
      Horsemen are drawing nearer
      On leather steeds they ride
      They've come to take your life
      On through the dead of night
      with the Four Horsemen ride
      or choose your fate and die !
  
   2. You've been dying since the day you've been born
      You know it's all been planned
      The quartet of deliverance rides
      A sinner once, a sinner twice
      No need for confession now
      'Cause now you've got the fight of your life
  
   Chorus
  
   Bridge :
      Time has taken it's toll on you
      The lines that crack your face
      Famine, your body it has torn through
      Withered in ev'ry place
      Pestilence, for what you had to endure
      For what you have put others through
      Death, deliv'rance for you for sure
      Now there's nothing you can do
  
   3. So gather round young warriors now
      And saddle up your steeds
      Killing scores with demon swords
      Now is the death of doers of wrong
      Swing the judgment hammer down
      Safely inside armor, blood, guts and sweat
  
   Chorus
