Glorious Burden - 2004

[1. Cannonade/Intro]

 [bad word] 

 [2. The Burden [bad word] 

 [Lee:]
 "It Was Very Close Yesterday
 I Thought For Sure They Would Break
 But This Attack That I Have Planned
 Massive Strike Across Open Land
 In The Center They Will Break (Will They Break?)
 But Plan It Well, Everything's At Stake
 We'll Hit 'Hard, Not Silent Gun
 Before The Infantry's Begun"

 "Execute It Well, We Risk Everything"
 "It's In God's Hands Now

 [Longstreet:]
 "General Lee I Must Tell You Straight
 I Believe This Attack Will Fail
 No 15,000 Men Ever Made
 Will Overtake That Ridge Today
 Mile Charge Over Open Ground
 With Yankee Cannon Gunnin' Us Down"

 [Lee:]
 "We Do Our Duty, We Do What We Must
 And In My Plan You Will [bad word] 

 (Thousands Die, On This Day)
 "Execute It Well, We Risk Everything"
 "It's In God's Hands Now"

 [3. The Last Full Measure]

 The Rebel Cannon Break The Silence
 150 Guns Make Up Their Cannonade

 They Must Destroy The Union Center
 Before The Infantry Can Launch Their Grand Assault

 The Yankees Are Returning Fire
 (The Earth Shakes Violently)
 In Washington D.C. Lincoln Feels The Earth Shake

 What Happens Here This Day
 The Fate Of This Nation
 In The Balance It Will Hang
 Consumed With The Pain
 The Courage Of The Blue
 The Valor Of The Grey
 So Very Sad But [bad word]  Consumed With The Pain

 The Virginians Are The Chosen
 In Wait Behind The Trees On Seminary Ridge

 Longstreet's Slow To Give The Order
 The Lines Emerge, Mile, 15,000 Men

 The Charge Begins In All It's Grandeur
 (To The Copse Of Trees)
 For Many Of These Men They Know It Is Their Last

 The Slaughter Now Ensues
 Bodies Fall Like Rain
 They Valiantly Pursue
 Yet Doomed To Remain
 At The Double Quick They Charge
 The Canister Rips Through Them
 To The Mouth Of [bad word] They March
 Glory, The Only Gain

 [4. Charge!!]

 [Armistead:]
 "We're Almost There My Boys
 I've Never Served With Finer
 We Must Push Forward Boys
 And Bayonet The Yankee Tyrants
 To The Copse Of Trees We Charge
 To [bad word] The Union Center
 And When They Turn [bad word]  An Open Road Leads Us To Freedom"

 [5. The Melee]

 [Lee:]
 "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 Responsible, All Of It Is My Fault
 I Thought Us Invincible
 Is This God's Will After All?
 I Look Across This Blood Soaked Land
 All This Blood Is On My Hands
 God Forgive Me, Please Forgive Me
 It's All My Fault, The Blood Is On My Hands"
