War Torn Unsung Hero

He was gonna take on the world for God and Country defending his homeland They brought him in gave him reason found the warrior inside the man He took his tours overseas thought through all the chaos and fatigue He grabbed his fear shove it way down deep and push down for peace (And then it was time to go home) Over there he and his brothers knew exactly what to do But back at home he's only lost frustrated and confused Unrelenting memories bury him in fear his path is narrow Just another war-torn unsung hero How do you separate the dead from the living in one man A man who can't decide if you really even made it home or if he can Is this a nightmare will he ever be the man he was before Yes he's killed but does that mean he's a killer and what's the difference anymore Over there he and his brothers knew exactly what to do But back at home he's only lost frustrated and confused Unrelenting memories bury him in fear his path is narrow Just another war-torn unsung hero Honor courage commitment the truth that he holds near Mortality's the price he'd pay to take on all you fear And when he made it back alive he asked nothing of you A voluntary sacrifice 'cause that's what Heroes do Courage is the filter he lives his life through And back at home his family holds him up until he's through To another book of memories to carry through the years His life is so full he was war-torn but he's a hero Yeah he was war-torn but he's a hero
