about

A glimpse of the battle that took place at Gettysburg, Pa.
It will set the backdrop as the opening tune of the forthcomingPistol Witch EP-
"the Ballad of Annabelle".
It is centered around the life of the fictional character Annabelle who’s husband comes back from the War to elope and wed his bride, taking her on a life changing expedition out into the Wild West where she will find herself on a path “less travelled” for a woman in the late 1800’s

lyrics

war is hell

my left hand is for peace
my right hand for war
i'll die for my my country
by the bullet or by sword
forward for god sakes my men
forward into the storm

War is Hell Sherman said just the other night
War is is cruelty, something that you can’t refine
in the morning we gotta take that hill
and many a good boy will die

so light your pipes and cigars boys
tomorrow we must ride
we march ourselves with uncertainty
tomorrow we may die
Jeb Stuart’s on the prowl out there
He’s sizing up the sides

Hell

Col. Vincent turns and says to Chamberlain
move your boys to the front as quiet as you can
with any luck we'll see both of our alma matters again

the clear blue sky erupts in fireworks and dragon fire
my eyes they burn, my arms like stone, my horse is beyond tired
a sea of grey breaks upon the shores of blue northern stone

and some angels can be killers
because the truth might be a lie
where is the divine spark
can you see it with your eye?
So many men today, yeah there's so many men that’s gonna die

hell

its quiet up here now on Cemetery Ridge
the silence a facade, i’ve given everything to give
I remember the voice of Sherman who said
that war is

Hell
War is Hell
