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
