Lyrics The Battle of Marathon - Fire Team Charlie

The Battle of Marathon

On this day we march towards the sun
Knowing this day could be our last
On this fold of dreams, we sow our prayers
And harvest the have we need
Tomorrow will be a better day
At least we can say tomorrow will be a better day
The beast appears!
Thunder of a million footsteps engulf me like fire
Face to face!
I look upon my enemy…
Tired and torn i draw my sword
Surge into the battle
We’ve won the day!
Many have died, few remain
A blanket of red covers all i see
We turn away
Back to our homes we struggle
On broken limbs and broken hearts
If they want blood, then they’ll get blood…
Nothing stands between me and the home i love
At least we can say today is better than yesterday
