[Verse 1]
I hear the call when the sirens scream
Into the light where an angel waits for me
She's lookin' bad, she's a killer machine
I say the word and she explodes into light
[Pre-Chorus]
Blinding power and rage
Players run to the stage
Screaming wings flip the silvery sky
Rising on pillars of flame
[Chorus]
And we ride, thundering into the sky
And we ride, on wings of eagles we fly
[Verse 2]
Full alert, she is hot for the game
I sense my enemy and fire is the warning I send
A dance of death, swirling miles above the rain
While mortals sleep angels swear to defend
[Pre-Chorus]
I salute you my friend
Unafraid to the end
Devil, take the high most, to hell with the rest
Now let the battle begin
[Chorus]
And we ride, thundering into the sky
And we ride, on wings of eagles we fly
Oh, come on get up, get out!
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
Heat seekers flash, headed straight for your heart
One finds the mark and a fireball rocks the clouds
Men and machines, sweet and deadly we are
We rule the wind on titanium wings
[Pre-Chorus]
Plunging back from the chase
One more champion erased
I am the last and the master of my art
Until I am challenged again
[Chorus]
And we ride, thundering into the sky
And we ride, on wings of eagles we fly
[Chorus]
And we ride, thundering into the sky
And we ride, on wings of eagles we fly
Oh... yeah!
