Who Needs You Now

You have fought for your country You have heard the calls of death And felt the loss of blood And now, no one hears or cares About the tears you cry You fought a fools war Inspired by heroic deeds Majestic words of honor and fame From people who never knew your name Many were those who fled And endured behind their protest signs But you, you fought the war Lost your limbs and gained insight into reality It was you who came back less than human And now you stand alone at night Lost and forgotten men Tell me, tell me who needs you now Where are the people Who gave you hell Where are the people Who cried to bring you home Who marched for your life While you marched to your death Where are the people Who loved you when it was the thing to do And fought for your cause While you wondered what it was As you watched your buddies fade away Heroes and medals Tell me, what does it all mean Now that you stand alone at night Lost and forgotten men And tell me, tell me, who needs you now Now that our memory fades Of those who served and the reasons why All we seem to do Is stand aside and watch them die And tell me Brothers Who needs you now?
