Lift the ribbon off my eyes

Every time I gave you another chance, you disappointed me harshly

Clearly you could never see why metamorphosis was so important to me

Lift the veil, rip off the blindfold from my eyes and give me the truth

If only we could have evolved together but each new phase was of no use

Play your lute while Rome burns and I’ll extract myself from the path of totality

Shadows and umbra have interrupted me far longer than I’ve allowed

Erasing the darkness, my eyes have adjusted to a different light without your obstruction and now, I am illuminated
