Life’s Forgotten Soldier

Fought their battle
You helped to win their war
Firm belief in all that you were fighting for
Where are they now
They don't need you anymore

The system failed you
Abandoned you and lied
They gave you reasons
They never justified
New enemy lines
They cast you to the other side

Life's forgotten soldier
Left behind to fade away in history
Life's forgottеn soldier
The promises thеy made are distant memory
A tragedy, but life moves on
Life moves on

You don't need medals
You're not after an award
But recognition for the role that they've ignored
And you've steered the ship
Then they threw you overboard

Life's forgotten soldier
Left behind to fade away in history
Life's forgotten soldier
The promises they made are distant memory
A tragedy, but life moves on
Life moves on

Abandoned soldiers, behind every door
Frustrated parents, who lost them all to war
Don't need a uniform to suffer in the fight
Even forgetters get forgotten overnight
I'm sorry soldier if I didn't treat you right
Didn't treat you right
If I didn't treat you right

Ahhh-I, woahh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Life's forgotten soldier
Left behind to fade away in history
Oh, life's forgotten soldier
The promises they made are distant memory
A tragedy, but life moves on
Tomorrow, life moves on
Life moves on
