On Horseback They Carried Thunder

A break in the sky, the horizon bled above
The dream was real, the storm gathered
The night rode on hellbound hooves
With vengeance in the saddle
A cracked whip, a grinding maw
A starved-eye stare and the weight of storms

No tomorrow! Only the trail
Horseback, galloping to the pulse of the world
The thunder, the storms
A vengeance for the world's blood
A tower of flesh and bone
Only blood for blood will sate the storm

At night they came, and brought with them thunder
A warcry for what was lost
At night they rode against oblivion, for a time that all forgot
