Threnody – Shallow lyrics
First one to ride was white
Had a bow and a crown
He went forth conquering
Forth he went to conquer
Come and see
Other horse that was red
Power given, take peace
They should kill each other
There was given great sword
Come and see
Given the power, to kill with sword
Given the power, to kill with hunger
Given the power, to kill with death
Given the power, with beasts of earth
I beheld a black horse
One on him had the scales
Measure for a penny
Hurt not the oil and wine
Come and see
Fourth one to ride was pale
This was to be the last
Name of the one was Death
All Hell followed with him
Come and see
Given the power, to kill with sword
Given the power, to kill with hunger
Given the power, to kill with death
Given the power, with beasts of earth
They are riding, riding today
Come and see
Given the power, to kill with sword
Given the power, to kill with hunger
Given the power, to kill with death
Given the power
