Nenikekamen 3

[Very long intro] [Verse 1] [Female voice] The armor was heavy, the sun was a blade Dust fills his eyes, fire his veins From the gates of Athens to the Spartan reigns Pan in the shadows, a voice in the wind The struggle of nations is about to begin Sparta said wait, but the tide wouldn't stay So he turned to the coast, to the salt and the spray [Chorus 1] [Female voice] Run, Phedippides, run through the night Between the dark mountains and the morning light! Heartbeat like thunder, breath like a flame They’ll build a whole world on the sound of your name [Very short instrumental break] [Chorus 2] [Choir] Run, Phedippides, run through the night Between black peaks and the dawn’s first light Heartbeat like thunder, breath like a flame They’ll build a whole world on the sound of your name Forty kilometers left to the gate One final message to carry the weight: "Nenikekamen! We won the day!" [Verse 2] [Female voice] His body got gaunt, the sun was a blade But he wouldn't falter, he wasn't afraid He ran for the people, he ran all alone Athena filling his mind with spirit and trust [Bridge] [Chorus 1] [Choir] Run, Phedippides, run through the night Between the dark mountains and the morning light! Heartbeat like thunder, breath like a flame They’ll build a whole world on the sound of your name [Chorus 2] [Choir] Run, Phedippides, run through the night Between black peaks and the dawn’s first light Heartbeat like thunder, breath like a flame They’ll build a whole world on the sound of your name Forty kilometers left to the gate One final message to carry the weight: "Nenikekamen! We won the day!" [Outro] Nenikekamen [End]
