Metamorphosis Lyrics

Leave me behind little butterfly

I once kept you warm, now I'm hollow and worn

Happy to be your cocoon

Till you ripped me apart and flew away too soon

Off to frolic and find fun

Flying right into the sun

Oh your journey's just begun

Now what's left for me

Solemn and empty

Left hanging from a tree

I thought I would hold you forever

But I only exist to make you better

Until you were strong enough to fly

And leave me here all dead and dry

Let me go dark cocoon

I'm growing up too fast, you're running out of room

When I needed to hide

you wrapped me up and shielded me inside

Grateful for all that you've done

But now my time has come, being beaconed by the sun

If I could I'd take you with me

But you'll never leave your tree

And I need to be free

I thought you would hold me forever

But I never knew I could be so much better

So I'm leaving but I'll never forget why

you made me here

you made me fly

If I remember right

You warmed me up at night

And kept me from the suns rays when they were too bright

If I remember true

I was apart of you

And painted you with yellow when you were feeling blue

When we were synced and symbiotic

Long before you called me toxic

Long before you went and lost it

We were both so idiotic

Too reliant on each other

Too self absorbed to be a lover

If you'd have stayed then you'd have suffered

If I'd have stayed then I'd have smothered

I thought you would hold me forever

But I never knew that we'd be so much better

So I'm leaving but I'll never forget why

You made me here you made me fly

You made me here you made me fly

You made me here you made me fly
