Lyrics
Flogging a Dead Horseman
And they ride once again across the wind swept steppes
Indiscriminately dispatching, abducting, sacrificing
The weak, the helpless, the innocent
Through the eons
Four horseman haunted
Those Christened sinners
Bringing terror and despair
Pestilence, famine, war, death
And still they ride uncontested across the plains
Hungrily, greedily devouring
Infants, the infirm, the aged
These four horsemen have been relentless
We have been despairing
Faithfully fatalistic
If it was just me here I wouldn’t really care
I’d watch their ugly parade
Detached and indifferent
To pestilence, famine, war, death
But for the weak, the helpless
The innocent, godforsaken children
Peace now motherfuckers!
Strength, healing, wisdom
And peace now motherfuckers!
I will not be cowed or to the inevitable bow
Before these false demons
These manifestations of our dread
Imagine there’s no heaven
Above us only sky
No hell below us
Just deceits of our dread
Mere fabrications of our fear
For there is no final judgment
What we create we can destroy
And flog them in joy
Pestilence, famine, war, death
For the weak, the helpless
The innocent, godforsaken children
Peace now motherfuckers!
Strength, healing, wisdom
And peace now motherfuckers!
You’re dead to me
I’m flogging
And not listening to
Preacher, priest, rabbi, imam
I’m no longer listening to your lies
And they ride once again across the wind swept steppes
Indiscriminately dispatching, abducting, sacrificing
The weak, the helpless, the innocent
Through the eons
Four horseman haunted
Those Christened sinners
Bringing terror and despair
Pestilence, famine, war, death
And still they ride uncontested across the plains
Hungrily, greedily devouring
Infants, the infirm, the aged
These four horsemen have been relentless
We have been despairing
Faithfully fatalistic
If it was just me here I wouldn’t really care
I’d watch their ugly parade
Detached and indifferent
To pestilence, famine, war, death
But for the weak, the helpless
The innocent, godforsaken children
Peace now motherfuckers!
Strength, healing, wisdom
And peace now motherfuckers!
I will not be cowed or to the inevitable bow
Before these false demons
These manifestations of our dread
Imagine there’s no heaven
Above us only sky
No hell below us
Just deceits of our dread
Mere fabrications of our fear
For there is no final judgment
What we create we can destroy
And flog them in joy
Pestilence, famine, war, death
For the weak, the helpless
The innocent, godforsaken children
Peace now motherfuckers!
Strength, healing, wisdom
And peace now motherfuckers!
You’re dead to me
I’m flogging
And not listening to
Preacher, priest, rabbi, imam
I’m no longer listening to your lies

The lyrics and the delivery are artistry. Some sounds are too hot and would like it cleaner.
One of your best.
