Unveil - Ascendant

Hiding in the night, in the shadows of life

The dark doesn’t claim reconciliation

It is shapeless but sharp as a knife

We don’t need the rehabilitation

Self-righteousness is a sweet seduction

A veil for the mind, a hallucination

But the debt grows to a burden

I am becoming the monster who reigns inside

Crimson as my filthy hands

The sun rises at dawn, unveils the dark

Drawn to my knees, drawn to confession

Through the valley of death, you carried the cross

My guilt is unbearable, choking me with its rotten breath

But the debt has already been paid.

I’ll meet my maker, the unconditional love

You have mercy on me, a sinner
