[Verse 1]

My feet are weary

From tragedy's path

The torchlight leads clearly

To goals achieved nearly

Still never to last

A son of no burden

But paying the cost

I'm brought to rejection

To cure the infection

And save what I've lost


[Chorus]

Here, I abandon my heart and my love

If I lose who I am, will I then be enough?

Must I give up my being? The darkness and blame?

Will I shine the last light, or remain casting shadows the same?


[Verse 2]

I pray you'll forgive me

For what I become

With no absolution

This world's disillusion

Lay hеavy with some

I made no excеption

I buried my name

Leaving these shadows cast

The hurt amassed

To heal the past

Could you do the same?


[Chorus]

Here, I abandon my heart and my love

If I lose who I am, will I then be enough?

Must I give up my being? The darkness and blame?

Will I shine the last light, or remain casting shadows the same?


[Instrumental Break]


[Bridge]

Cut in two

Broken and reformed in truth

Casting away the dark

Soul and heart

Every part

Scraped like a

Hollow shell

Parallel

To the whole life that I

Threw away

Waiting for the light to fade

I'll be the last way out

With a vow

Standing proud

But there's a price to pay

Blood and pain

For compassion now


[Pre-Chorus]

So, this is my purpose

The odyssey's done

I lay my ambition

My hopes and my vision

Whatever may come


[Chorus]

Here, I abandon my heart and my love

If I lose who I am, will I then be enough?

Must I give up my being? The darkness and blame?

Will I shine the last light, or remain casting shadows the same?


[Outro]

I won't be the same

I won't be the same

I'm still casting shadows again

I won't be the same

No, I won't be the same

I won't be the same

I'm still casting shadows again
