Rider In Red
Savant Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Of a mysterious reaches of infinity,
A gigantic astro-body hurdles towards the Earth,
To terrorize and seal the doom of an unprepared mankind.

Talk to the army.
They've got the guided missiles,
The nuclear warheads.
Intersect and destroy it before it strikes.

A metallic vampire,stalking the Earth.

Here comes the Rider in Red!
(ride,ride)
But soon you'll be dead (kill kill kill kill)
He'll chop off your head
With evil steel.
You must kneel to

The Rider in Red!
(ride,ride)
But soon you'll be dead (kill kill kill kill)
He'll chop off your head
With evil steel.
The last thing you will see is
A hologram ghost.

???...for you
And whatever hell you go to, yeah
Taking your time is a sin
Losing your mind
You know you can't win against
Ride,Ride,Ride
You know you can't
Hide,hide,hide
Nobody rise,rise,rise.
You don't stand a chance even if you try

Here comes the Rider in Red!
(ride,ride)
And soon you'll be dead (kill kill kill kill)
He'll chop off your head
With evil steel
Unless you'll kneel to
The Rider in Red!
(ride,ride)
And soon you'll be dead (kill kill kill kill)
With evil Steel
The last thing you will see is




A ninja Rider in Red!
(Whip)
