Song
480 B.C.
Words by Byron Callisto. Music by Jupiter Sheep.
leonidas gave the signal to the man
to command the column march forward
they defied the face of death
marching on while ten thousand fled
480 B.C. was a life
the sweet taste of copper at midnight
sky full of voices that never would stop
talking to you like you’re all they’ve got
i’ll remember this glorious day
when we held the pass at thermopylae
after we die the poets will say
of all that fought one thousand stayed
leonidas led a thousand men
against the nightmare persian
in the face of a numberless horde
they tightened their buckles and drew their swords
480 B.C. was a life
the sweet taste of copper at midnight
sky full of voices that never would stop
talking to you like you’re all they’ve got
