Disgraced Soldier

[Verse]
Dust on my boots blood on my hands
Carried the weight of a broken land
They said fight they said serve they said die
But no one told me the reason why
[Chorus]
Disgraced they spit on my name
Disgraced like I’m the one to blame
I gave my soul I gave my skin
Disgraced by the country I bled for within
[Verse 2]
I watched my brothers fall one by one
Under a burning unforgiving sun
Flags draped on coffins hearts torn apart
We fought with honor they tore out the heart
[Prechorus]
They called us heroes when we marched away
Now ghosts in shadows is where we stay
[Chorus]
Disgraced they spit on my name
Disgraced like I’m the one to blame
I gave my soul I gave my skin
Disgraced by the country I bled for within
[Bridge]
Echoes of gunfire still haunt my head
The living forgotten the honor is dead
I fought for freedom but now I see
Freedom was never meant for me
