SciFi and Fantasy Stories: Lone Rider

The following is a sequel to another song I did titled "Twilight's Child."

"Lone Rider"
Evil Overlady

The dust kicks up like a mist
Where vampires dare to exist.
A lone horseman rides on through without a care.

There's a fierce look in his eyes
And they glow much to dark's surprise,
And the shadows slide away to let him past without a fare.

Chorus:
Lone rider,
Law decider,
In a future where the darkness rule the land...

His silver pays a simple goal.
A woman may yet lose her soul
To a demon king if there's but a moment of delay.

So he rides with a deadly sword
On a beast no man can afford
And a darkness in his soul no creature dare disarray.

[Chorus]

He's arrived on the wedding night
And the groom bares fangs sharp and moonlit white
For a trembling neck, fragile and frozen still in fear.

A knife breaks the master's gaze
And the girl stirs up out of her daze.
Blue eyes find the bold rider standing in the clear.

[Chorus]

The bride runs to her savior's side,
Hops the saddle where they both can ride
In to the night to somewhere safe and far away.

The rider gives the king a warning glow
And they ride off as dawn breaks new and full
To leave the villain to plot and another day.

[Chorus]

Lone rider...
