It was very close, yesterday, I thought for sure, that they would break But this attack, that I have planned A massive strike across open land.
In the center, they will break Plan it well, everythings at stake We'll hit em hard, not a silent gun. Before the infantry's begun
Execute it well...we risk everything..its in Gods hands now..
General Lee, I must tell you straight That I beleive this attack will fail. No 15,000 men ever made, will overtake that ridge today.
A wild charge over open ground, with yankee cannon gunning down, we do our duty, we do what we must And in my plan, you will trust
(Thooouusands diiie...)
Execute it well...we risk everything..its in Gods hands now..
The rebel cannons break the silence! One hundred fifty gunsmen on the cannons there We must destroy the union center
Before the infantry can launch their grand assult The yankees are returning fire We must in turn fight its gods will that we are here this daay!
What happens here this day The fate of a nation In the balance it will hang Consumed with the pain
The COURAGE of the blue! The VALOUR of the gray! So very sad but true Consumed with the pain..
The virginians are then chosen They went behind the trees on Cemetery Ridge They must be slow to give the orders THe light emerged from my own 15,000 men
The charge begins in all its granduer For many are these men, they know it is their last
The slaughter now ensues, bodies fall like rain They valiantly ensue, though doomed to remain At the double quick they charge The cannon still rips through them To the mouth of hell they march Glory the only gain!
[Cannon Scene]
We're almost there my boys I never thought we'd fire We must push forward boys And bayonet the yankee tyrants
Through the depths of trees we charge To cross the union center And when they turn and run I hope they'll drop and beg for freedom!
[Battle Ensues, Orchestra Solo, With people dying in the background]
It's over now we are retreating I never thought that we'd be beaten All this blood is on my hands The thousands dead due to my plan
I am responsible All of this is my fault I thought us invincible Is this gods will, after all?
I look across this blood soaked land All their blood is on my hands
God forgive me Please forgive me...
ITS ALL MY FAULT!!! Their blood is on my haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaands....
