Οι Judas Priest και το Blood red skies απο το Ram it down album που κυκλοφόρησε το 1988.
Εκτός του οτι πρόκειται για ενα απο τα καλύτερα Judas Priest τραγούδια, είναι και ενα cybepunk έπος. Ένα απο τα αρκετά που έγραψαν μιας και το sci-fi/cyberpunk είναι ενα στιχουργικό υπόβαθρο που έπαιξε και αυτό τον ρόλο του στην ιστορία των Judas Priest, και την καθιέρωση τους ως ενα απο τα πιο σημαντικά heavy metal group.
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 tomorrowIf 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 fightingFelt the hand of justice Telling wrong from right Threw me out upon the street In the middle of the nightCybernetic heartbeat Digital precise Pneumatic fingers nearly Had me in their viceNot begging you I’m telling you!You won’t break me You won’t make me You won’t take me Under blood red skiesYou won’t break me You won’t take me I’ll fight you under Blood red skiesThrough a shattered city Watched by laser eyes Overhead the night squad glides The decaying paradiseAutomatic sniper With computer sights Scans the bleak horizon For its victim of the nightThey’re closing in They’ll never winYou won’t break me You won’t take me You won’t make me Under blood red skiesYou won’t break me You won’t take me I’ll fight you Under blood red skiesAs 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 aliveI’ll stand my ground I won’t go downYou won’t break me You won’t take me ‘Cause I’ll fight you Under blood red skiesYou won’t break me You won’t take me ‘Cause I’ll face you under Blood red skiesYou’ll never take me alive I’m telling you Hands of justiceI will stand,
I will fight Never surrender As the sun goes down
