Now the issue fades away,
Only bread and butter worries.
I just want you home today,
But no one else is in a hurry
For our guys.

Quite content with doing nothing,
Drift along in apathy.
Far away from home, forgotten,
Not a drop of sympathy
For our guys…

	In a far off land
	For our guys,
	For our guys.

Verse 2.

Telling tales to one another,
You can’t get them home from here.
Send your son then send your brother,
The fog of war leaves nothing clear
For our guys.

Nothing changes, no tomorrow
Will look different from today.
Consternation, guilty sorrow,
For the debt we can’t repay
For our guys…

	Got to take a stand.
	For our guys.
	For our guys.

Verse 3.

So we walk with voices muted,
Marching lockstep, keeping time.
Bearing witness, unaffected,
Just pass the blame on down the line
For our guys.

Will somebody stop the cadence,
Quell the drum that beats for war?
Only truth can make a difference,
But we can’t sing it anymore
For our guys…

	Gotta lend a hand.
	For our guys.
	For our guys.

Verse 4.

Hum a line of deep forgiveness.
Play a melody of love.
Clap your hands for acts of kindness.
Bend in prayer to God above
For our guys.

When the whole cloth will unravel,
And the threads of truth reveal,
Tell the judge who holds the gavel,
That the fates were never sealed
For our guys…

	Doin’ what we can.
	For our guys.
	For our guys.
