    Default "The Conqueror Worm"

    (set in a bluegrass/rock/fusion sort of style)

    when the sky goes dark
    and the stars begin to fall
    when man says in his heart
    i have not the law

    blood will run
    bodies will burn
    the end will come...
    The conqueror worm

    death will come a riding
    a pale horse on the streets
    there will be no hiding
    and when it's time to be reaped

    blood will run
    bodies will burn
    the end will come...
    The conqueror worm

    bones will become dust
    blowing away in the wind
    there's no one to trust
    no escape for us my friend

    blood will run
    bodies will burn
    the end will come...
    The conqueror worm

    no, no, no
    oh, oh, oh

    the end will come...
    The conqueror worm

    This is very...interesting. And oddly fascinating! I really dig your verses.

    The line,"I have not the law" instead of "I not have the law" shows a certain premitive feeling about narrator.This is a great piece of writing.
