[Part 1]
I Gdidn't know we Gwere at war, CI've been aDway so Glong;
Gtrying to help Gonce lost men, disCtinguish Dright from Gwrong. G
I Gdidn't know we'd Dkilled the men, our Cleaders proud and Gstrong,
the Gsituation 's Gchanged, my friend, I've Cbeen aDway too Glong.
[Interlude]

[Part 2]
I Gtaught my friends how Gwe had gained resCpect for Devery Gman
and Gfreedom flowed like Gjungle streams while Cpeace emDbraced the Gland. G
I Gtold them how we'd Dlearned to change our Csword blades into Gplows,
I Gtold them they should Glearn from us, what Cshould I Dtell them Gnow.

[Part 4]
The Gjungle silence Gshut them off Cfrom civiDlized manGkind,
their Gnakedness was Gno disgrace, no Ccensors Dcould I Gfind. G
The Gpopulation Dlived in peace, all Cbrothers on their Gown
and Gnow that I have Gseen the mess I Cdon't think DI'll go Ghome.
