You know my sins
You kept the log
You followed me through the gothic fog
All of my days
Let me ride away
With the horsemen

Now I’m on a cliff
Looking down on the world
And the sky is dark with anguish
And the sun is a lion
And the moon is a silver platter
With the head of John the Baptist

Something walks along with me
Something I cannot see
Show me your face
Or let me ride away
With the horsemen

Now I’m on a cliff
Looking down at the world
On a horse named Hallelujah
The empty suit
Of that long dead street musician
Is hovering above park avenue
I can see thе alley where I usеd to sleep
I can hear my footsteps in the snow white street
I can see the captain and the bride unveiled
And the crucifixion and the dripping nail
Now my horse is running, she’s bridled and saddled
She whinnies and neighs as the rattlesnakes rattle
There’s a pit of fire and a pit of vipers
And there’s orange blossom
And there’s blooming cypress

My life is a blade of grass
In a season it all will pass
Show me your face
Or let me ride away
With the horsemen
