How does the lyrics of red star falling by saxon relate to the cold war?

See below  

Explanation:

The cold war was the period following World War II when the two superpowers of the day, the Soviet Union and the United States, were economic, political, and military adversaries.

The red star was a symbol of communism, the Soviet Union, and the Red Army.  

The Red Army controlled the republics of the Soviet Union, brutally suppressing any dissent.

"A million people in the streets" refers to protest marches against communism around the world. It reminds me of the gathering of a million protesters in New York City in 1982  

"The tanks have left, the walls torn down" refers to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989-1990. The hated wall prevented Soviet citizens from escaping to the American side.

"Live no more in fear and shame" and "Hear no more the screams of pain" refer to the  Communist Party losing its monopoly on state power in 1990. Relaxed controls on the press and on dissent led the republics of the Soviet Union to declare their autonomy from Moscow, with some withdrawing from the Union entirely.
