The Chariot of the Mad Horse

[Intro] Pride! Deceit! Merciless! Pride! Deceit! Merciless! [Verse 1] One day, a charioteer appeared, Whispering softly into my ear. “Pure Land Paradise lies ahead— Climb aboard, and never fear.” [Pre-Chorus 1] The savage steed lets out its cry, A roar that rends the sky apart. Broken wheels tear through the earth, Scattering showers of burning sparks. The charioteer of Māra fades into the wind… Is the road ahead the promised Pure Land, Or an unfathomable abyss? [Chorus 1] The Chariot of the Mad Horse— Ride it, and hardship awaits. Into the deepest valley Your fate is bound to fall. Bodies shattered in its wake. Verse 2 [Intro] Wrath! Envy! Foolishness! Wrath! Envy! Foolishness! [Verse 2] Though lives are crushed Beneath the raging elephant’s tread, Still the path to salvation remains. But once you’ve climbed upon the chariot, Only karmic ruin waits At the end of the mad horse’s course. [Pre-Chorus 2] Blind to where your own path leads, Trusting others with your fate— Bound together, all as one. [Chorus 2] The Chariot of the Mad Horse— Ride it, and hardship awaits. Into the deepest valley Your fate is bound to fall. Bodies shattered in its wake.
