Dark horse

Dark Horse

The pain inside is the pain you hide,

When that dark horse, you choose to ride.

The dark angel rides by your side,

You feel his presence deep inside.

He’s so arrogant in his pride,

He matches your pace; he matches your stride,

For it is his horse you chose to ride

Are you surprised that he lied,

When he said he’d keep you well,

Instead he dragged you into hell.

The dark horse rears its ugly head.

The dark angel wants and needs you dead.

Many I know were quick to succeed,

In fulfilling the dark angel’s need.

I will be no more the dark angel’s whore.

I will walk from now on, I will ride nevermore.

Sometimes distant hooves, I hear,

And I am reminded of the pain and fear.

Please be wise, take my advice.

Don’t bet your soul and roll the dice.

Don’t look upon the dark angel twice.

For if you survive that twisted ride,

You must fight hard to regain your pride.

So if you hear these words I speak,

Fight for control, you can’t be weak.

The dark angel wants you to ride his horse.

He wants you to be hopeless, and feel remorse.  

Climb off the dark horse, walk away.

Do it now, do it today,

For there has been another by your side.

In time Jesus will help you end your ride.

All praise to the Prince 0f Peace, he’s on your side.

† Amen. †
