LET IT BUUUUUURN
*
[Intro — spoken]
The end begins
When a friend betrays a man.
[Verse 1]
Before Lucifer I stand,
He smells the anger on my skin.
Without fear, I open my mouth;
My pain shakes the halls of death.
[Gang Shouts]
They left me!
Sold me!
Betrayed me for a handful of gold!
Rage in my blood!
Pain in my bones!
[Spoken — Lucifer]
Can you teach me?
Give my anger form.
Let revenge be born.
[Mortal Man]
What do you want—a spear or sword?
[Lucifer]
No.
Four teachers.
[Verse 2]
She is might itself,
Rider dressed in red,
Worlds laid low beneath her hand—
War herself!
[Gang Shouts]
War!
Four riders at the gate!
Horsemen, ride!
No time to waste—four riders, one fate!
No mercy when they come,
All at once or one by one!
[Groove Drop]
Horsemen, ride!
Break the gates tonight!
War! Famine! Pestilence! Death!
The Four are behind me; I feel their breath!
[Verse 3]
Famine trains endurance,
Pestilence trains the mind.
I learn each hidden trap,
I see through every lie.
[Spoken — Lucifer]
Take this picture:
The one you loved,
The one you died for.
Is she worth it?
[Shouted Answer]
YES!
[Cold Death Entrance — spoken]
The gate opens.
Cold air fills Hell.
Every head lowers
As Death approaches the throne.
[Death]
I will teach you resurrection.
They will rise whenever you command.
[Lucifer]
The Four are behind you.
They always were.
[Half-Time Breakdown — Gang Shouts]
WAR!
FAMINE!
PESTILENCE!
DEATH!
FOUR!
BEHIND!
MY!
BACK!
[Final Build]
Lucifer, I will strike them when they come!
[Lucifer — spoken]
Why wait?
Go now!
[Final Chorus]
Horsemen, ride!
Break the gates tonight!
War, Famine, Pestilence, Death!
The Four are behind me; I feel their breath!
Armageddon every day
Until the end of time!
[Outro — cold, abrupt]
War.
Famine.
Pestilence.
Death.
They always were.more
