lyrics

The tale was told years ago
Sparta will burn or the king must fall
From the deep east a barbarian king
Gathered his army horror to bring

A messenger came from the dark plains of persia
"Earth and water" he states his demand
The answer came quick with the flash of the blade
He suffered a cutthroat from the kings shining blade

Bridge:
Now he's alone with a strong heart
He gathered three hundered to hold the attack

Chorus:
Leonidas the brave king
Raised in battle death will bring
Chose to stay and face the death
Lakedaimon 'till his final breath


Now they're standing at the gates of fire
Three hundred men with blood desire
Ready to die and make a stand
No one shall pass through the gates of hell

A thousand bodies lie on the ground
The spartans payback to the persian pride
The sky turned black from the incoming arrows
They're fighting as one 'till the morning hours

Bridge:
They are outnumbered but fear they don't feel
A warmachine roaring for thunder and steel

Chorus:
Leonidas the brave king
Raised in battle death will bring
Chose to stay and face the death
Lakedaimon 'till his final breath

"Ω ξειν αγγέλειν λακεδαιμονίοις οτι τήδε κείμεθα τις κοίνων ρήμασι πειθόμενοι"

solo


In the seventh day a greek betrayer
Leads the persians to the spartans' center
So the king will fall and sparta will live
His name will last courage to give

His spirit flyes to the elysian fields
The soldiers joined him upon on their shields
They'll live forever inside our souls
Three hundered brave men 'till history falls

Bridge:
Now he's alone with a strong heart
A warmachine roaring to hold the attack

Chorus:
Leonidas the brave king
Raised in battle death will bring
Chose to stay and face the death
Lakedaimon 'till his final breath
