(Written by: L. Rutledge & W. Dane) Staring into the sky, the red glare will blind your eyes Afraid to see the light Your fears have spread this plight No way to kill the power Behold your race will die Deathrider comes from above No place to hide nowhere to run Deathrider's rage is on the loose Your neck in it's eternal noose Our leaders have set the course, impending world war Afraid of what's been lost Your life the bitter cost No prayer can stop the third war Behold the holocaust Deathrider comes from above No place to hide nowhere to run As the city burns I cannot hear your cries Will our world end in 1999 A fifteenth century seer saw us cast Into the black, death attack Afraid to see the light Your fears have spread this plight No way to kill the power Behold your race will die Deathrider comes from above No place to hide nowhere to run Deathrider's rage is on the loose Your neck in it's eternal noose
