pericles - xiphos lyrics
[intro]
behind the safety of the city walls
outside, the fields are burning in this war
once upon a longtime ago
in greece
[verse]
glory to the fallen by a man
unperturbed like zeus there he stands
praising the athenian way of life
as an ideal
[chorus]
the olympian, he had a vision
now forever anchored in time
when the stakes were getting higher
he was still willing to pay the price
still willing to pay the price
[verse]
as patron of fеstivals and the fine arts
with drama lifting up the pеople’s hearts
he created a greater sense of unity
through the years
architecture and territory sprawling
not ruled by the few but by the many
as science and reason forged a lasting empire
of the mind
[chorus]
the olympian, he had a vision
now forever anchored in time
when the stakes were getting higher
he was still willing to pay the price
still willing to pay the price
[bridge]
can you see it * can you see it?
on a stroll across the long wall
can you hear it * can you hear it?
like the sound of sirens calling
[outro]
behind the safety of the city walls
outside, the fields are burning in this war
once upon a longtime ago
in greece
