I know I’ve been away For a little while I’d like to tell myself to bring it back But let me stay a little bit unconquerable A little piece of me, a piece of you All tangled up and hidden away Quiet ascendance   Finding what my former self had tangled up In savage, bitter knots of Doubt and fear Unraveled now by the acceptance Sweet ascendance Leaving me naked now in my reflections But the less I hide, the less you see And the more I come to relish in that victory

Ascendance
I know I’ve been away For a little while I’d like to tell myself to bring it back But let me stay a little bit unconquerable A little piece of me, a piece of you All tangled up and hidden away Quiet ascendance   Finding what my former self had tangled up In savage, bitter knots of Doubt and fear Unraveled now by the acceptance Sweet ascendance Leaving me naked now in my reflections But the less I hide, the less you see And the more I come to relish in that victory
