High Water Mark
作詞:Jon Schaffer
It was very close, yesterday I thought for sure, they would break But this attack, that I have planned A 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 'em hard, not a silent gun Before the Infantry's begun
Execute it well, we risk everything It's in Gods hands now
General Lee, I must tell you straight I believe this attack will fail No fifteen thousand men ever made Will overtake that ridge today A mile charge over open ground With Yankee cannon gunnin' us down
We do our duty, we do what we must And in my plan, you will trust (Thousands die on this day) Execute it well, we risk everything It's in Gods hands now
The rebel cannon break the silence One hundred fifty 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 true Consumed with the pain 更多更詳盡歌詞 在 ※ Mojim.com 魔鏡歌詞網
The Virginians are the chosen In wait behind the trees on Seminary Ridge Longstreet's slow to give the orders The lines emerged a mile, fifteen thousand men
The charge begins in all its 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 hell they march Glory, the only gain
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 crush the Union Center And when they turn and run An open road leads us to freedom
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 it is my fault I thought us invincible Is this gods 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
