As boys, they sent us off to fight,
we did as we were told.
On our return, as men, we found,
a nation bleak and cold.
As boys, we went so full of pride,
we’d be heroes on our return.
As men, we left our childhood there,
and quickly had to learn.
No heros we, the boys of war
that fought and died as men.
For honor and a heroes' welcome,
your battles you must win.
