Sacred Gate - Tides of War lyrics

Ten years ago Heralds arrived from Persia They asked for earth and Water, the tokens of submission A long journey in vain, because They should know our answer That we Greeks place freedom Above our lives Sons of war, warrior's sons The hour has come Call to arms, from the north Comes the storm The new king and His army are here again For a war of reprisal And revenge Men will die Rivers of blood will flow Gods unleash The eternal tides of war A clash between Freedom and slavery We'll stand against the king We'll fight his tyranny A threat for our culture For our way of life Even when outnumbered We'll fight with all our might Pre-chorus Chorus The fate of dark d**h Will fall on us We'll die foe a higher cause A message we will send Of pride and defiance Freedom's worth dying for Chorus
