"Casting Shadows" lyrics

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

Here I abandon
My heart and my love
If 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?

I pray you'll forgive me
For what I become
With no absolution
This world's disillusion
Lay heavy with some
I made no exception
I buried my name
Leaving these shadows cast
The hurt amassed
To heal the past
Could you do the same?

Here I abandon
My heart and my love
If 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?

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

So this is my purpose
The odyssey's done
I lay my ambition
My hopes and my vision
Whatever may come

Here I abandon
My heart and my love
If 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?
