Far in the horizon, there gathers a storm And if you look closely, you’ll see the approaching lords Chrome shining in the desert sun Black Riders from the pits of hell
Run while you can feeble man Tonight we’ll visit your womens beds Lay waste the house of your god Impale the priest upon our horns
We’re riders of the apocalypse Drink the beer and spill the blood Riders of the apocalypse Born to raise hell and that’s a fact
Tonight we’re only passing by your lovely town Destroying to serve our lord
Its safe to say they look mean Goathorns will do that to a demon As if that was not enough: Look at the swords they’ve brought Skulls hang from their wings That’s always a bad sign
Riders of the apocalypse Born to raise hell and that’s a fact Riders of the apocalypse Born and raised in hell
Are you looking at me? Wipe that grin of your face! I’ve met men like you before So many from where I come
You know where you’re going Eternal pain and suffering Can’t you feel the beckoning abyss I will take you there
I’ve heard the souls of hell, as they plead A second of alleviance from aeons misery
With one hand I crush his skull Another soul to the pits of hell With each day that passes by We grow strong and many
Now that the land lays waste The riders move on If you watch the horizon tonight You might see them come
