Forgotten Heroes

10 years in the service, he was willing to give his life
For a country that he loved, he served his time with pride
When the war was over Johnny were back home
His wife and kids had left him, he had no place to go
Forgotten heroes
He ain’t looking for handouts, just wants some peace of mind
All that he wants is to build up a new life
But nobody looks after him, they just let him burn
Risking your life for all these years and you get nothing in return
Once a nations pride, is now lying on the streets
Drinking away his misery, no shoes an his feet
Once a young, strong man, who was proud to serve his land
Now being split on and nobody gives a damn
