Metalsteel - Thermopylai Lyrics

At Thermopylai Spartan army proudly stands
Silently waiting for the king's commands
With long hair, beards and scarlet cloaks
Makes the enemy wonder what gods Greece invoked

As soon as Persian army starts to charge
Spartan hoplites begin their deadly march
Marching side by side with pointed spears
Showing no fear as the enemy draws near

Lead by Leonidas, the Spartan king
They fight the battle they can't win

At Thermopylai mighty Spartans fight well
Defending their country give Persians hell
At Thermopylai mighty Spartans finally fall
Fighting for freedom, obeying duty's call

Like raging lions they meet the enemy
The battlefield t ur ns into blood-red sea
They fight fiercely shield against shield
Victory or death is the law they yield

For ho ur s blow after blow is dealt
Twice Persians are successfully repelled
Until Xerxes hears for secret mountain path
Sending the Immortals he unleashes his wrath

As enemy falls upon them all hope dies
To save countrymen and Greece Spartans sacrifice

At Thermopylai mighty Spartans fight well
Defending their country give Persians hell
At Thermopylai mighty Spartans finally fall
Fighting for freedom, obeying duty's call
