I have no gift of prophecy For I am doomed by reality To wars and rumors of war; There is darkness knocking at the door. A burst of light that is not the sun, Who will be the first to plunge Our world into apocalypse For vain glory and treasureships? I have no gift for prophecy, But signs are there for us to see~ The horsemen will begin their run,* While pure evil says well done. *The four horsemen of the apocalypse: conquest/pestilence, war, famine, death.
