Brothers in the Jungle

Verse 1

Staring at the letter, drafted but not sent

Old world around me, lost innocence I lament

Boots hit the shoreline, fear and pride collide

Wondering who I’ll be, when I reach the other side

Pre-Chorus

Thunder rolling closer, shadows in the rain

All that we remember, etched with every name

Chorus

Down in the jungle, marching through the mud

Brothers beside me, hearts beating like a drum

Fire in the distance, dawn won’t bring the sun

Tryin’ to make it home, but the war has just begun

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh

We keep holding on

Oh, oh, oh

'Til the fighting’s gone

Verse 2

Letters in my pocket, names carved on my mind

Land I don’t remember, ghosts from the front line

Night falls heavy, hope is running thin

Dreaming of a highway, far away from the din

Pre-Chorus

Silver birds are flying, thunder in the sky

We count the days and wonder why

Chorus

Down in the jungle, marching through the mud

Brothers beside me, hearts beating like a drum

Fire in the distance, dawn won’t bring the sun

Tryin’ to make it home, but the war has just begun

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh

We keep holding on

Oh, oh, oh

'Til the fighting’s gone

Bridge

Winds carry whispers from home we left behind

Memories of laughter, slipping through the pines

Smoke curling upward, covers up the pain

Still chasing daylight through the monsoon rain

Chorus

Down in the jungle, marching through the mud

Brothers beside me, hearts beating like a drum

Fire in the distance, dawn won’t bring the sun

Tryin’ to make it home, but the war has just begun

Post-Chorus

Oh, oh, oh

We keep holding on

Oh, oh, oh

'Til the fighting’s gone
