Riot - On Your Knees Lyrics
A slave to indulgence, a slave who obtains
A slave to your pleasure, a slave to your pain
A slave to a business, a mistress, a wife
Slave to the bottle the needle or knife
Select your next master and feel how it feels
On your knees
Into the night that you'll never remember
On your knees
Bow to the crowd of a thousand oppressors
Enslaved by the dealers or the junkies themselves
Ensnared by self pity or the sweet lie of wealth
Afraid to stop running or frozen in place
Afraid to begin or finish the race
The doors are all open, they close from behind
On your knees
Into the night that you'll never remember
On your knees
Bow to the crowd of a thousand oppressors
On your knees
Into the night that you'll never remember
On your knees
Bow to the crowd of a thousand oppressors
Oh, awake from the drugs or asleep from the wine
The doors are all open, they close from behind
Whatever you choose there's a suicide clause
You die of neglect or you die to applause
On your knees
Into the night that you'll never remember
On your knees
Bow to the crowd of a thousand oppressors
On your knees
Into the night that you'll never remember
On your knees
Bow to the crowd of a thousand oppressors
Slave to your lovers and slave to your lessers

Into the night that you'll never remember! Sounds like me when I'm drinking. Gonna see riot today for THE first time! So fucking excited!!
fine speedy metal !!!!
I'm searching for more metal music that uses sax/trumpet as well as this song ever since I found out about Riot, can anyone help out and recommend more?
Give Dog Fashion Disco a try. Cheers!

kina reminds me of what Jeff waters would write
Holy shit 🔥 lol. I been listening to riot for yrs but always thought the speed metal albums would suck guess that's a prime example of never judge a book by its cover lol
it's funny because I bought this on tape back in 1990 & thought it was their second release.the one with Blood streets I thought was their first.
Lol this just starts out with Race with the Devil on Spanish Highway by Al Di Meola, so random!
+rredzone It took me a long time to realize this after I saw they finished out the album with the full cover track.
What happened in china in april and may? Whatever the government says happened.

I wasn't really asking I was quoating the lyrics but I did always wonder I had my suspicions but I wasn't 100% sure so thank you, was the audio clip something that was really said or a mock up they did for the album?
So good! Never gets old!!
Brings back some memories
Very good speed metal... but less known. Thanks
