Nenikekamen 2 +++(Cover)(Cover)

[very long intro] [classical aria] [Verse 1] Dust on his sandals, fire in his veins Two hundred miles through the mountain rains From the gates of Athens to the Spartan walls He ran for the city, he gave it his all! 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] Run, Pheidippides, 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 Forty kilometers left to the gate One final message to carry the weight: "Nenikekamen! We won the day!" Then the soul of the runner just drifted away [Verse 2] The armor was heavy, the sun was a blade But he wouldn't falter, he wasn't afraid Past the olive groves, past the ancient stones He ran for the people, he ran all alone! The lungs are burning, the legs are like lead The spirits of heroes are calling his name [Bridge] [Chorus] Run, Pheidippides, 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! Forty kilometers left to the gate One final message to carry the weight: "Nenikekamen! We won the day!" Then the soul of the runner just drifted away! [Outro] "Nenikekamen." [Final hit] [End]
