Into the Shadow

It's never my name
 Called into the foreground
 "Step to the side", they say
 "Please make some room"
 But they're not making it for you
 What is the right way
 Choose to forgive again?
 When it takes everything
 And what if I still lose?
 But if it's the right thing to do
 Do I step back into the shadow?
 Do I never stand in the light?
 I know that it would be worth it
 I'm not running from your side
 I'm just falling behind, if it saves a life
 Stepping back into the shadow
 So scared of disappearing
 Will I give until I'm gone?
 What if it's when you're fading
 You see the whole view?
 Even if no one remembers you
 Do I step back into the shadow?
 Do I never stand in the light?
 I know that it would be worth it
 I'm not running from your side
 I'm just falling behind, if it saves a life
 Then I don't mind
 Stepping back into the shadow
 No one's too far to be forgiven
 Redemption is a friend of time
 A life finds worth when it's given
 That's a life worth living
 That's a life worth giving
 I'd give it all, I'm willing
 To fall behind
 I'll step back into the shadow
 Some don't need to stand in the light
 I know that, know that you're worth it
 I'm not running from your side
 I'm just falling behind, if it saves a life
 Then I don't mind
 If it saves your life
 And they forget mine
 I don't mind
 Stepping back into the shadow
