Blood Red Skies Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro 00:00-00:54]
[Verse 1]
As the sun goes down, I move around
Keeping to the shadows
Life, hangs by a thread
And I've heard it said
That I'll not see tomorrow

If that's my destiny, it'll have to be
So I'll face the future
Running out of time
I'm on the line
But I'll go down fighting

[Verse 2]
Felt the hand of justice
Telling wrong from right
Threw me out upon the street in the middle of the night

Cybernetic heartbeat
Digital precise
Pneumatic fingers nearly had me in their vice

[Pre-Chorus]
Not begging you
I'm telling you

[Chorus]
You won't break me
You won't make me
You won't take me under blood red skies

You won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you under blood red skies

[Verse 3]
Through a shattered city
Watched by laser eyes
Overhead the night squad glides, the decaying paradise

Automatic sniper
With computer sights
Scans the bleak horizon for its victim of the night

[Pre-Chorus]
They're closing in
They'll never win

[Chorus]
You won't break me
You won't take me
You won't make me under blood red skies

You won't break me
You won't take me
I'll fight you under blood red skies

[Bridge]
As the end is drawing near
Standing proud, I won't give in to fear
As I die a legend will be born
I will stand—I will fight
You'll never take me alive

[Lead: K.K. Downing]

[Pre-Chorus 3]
I'll stand my ground
I won't go down

[Chorus]
You won't break me
You won't take me
Cos I'll fight you under blood red skies

You won't break me
You won't take me
Cos I'll face you under blood red skies

[Outro w/ Guitar Solo: Glenn Tipton]

[Outro]
You'll never take me alive
I'm telling you
Hands of justice
I will stand—I will fight
Never surrender
As the sun goes down
