Copyright - Transfiguration lyrics

rate me

As the salmon swim upstream, reddened with decay<br />

To die there in their birthplace, so will I change<br />

As the stream becomes inert and the wildflowers fade<br />

As the forest turns to desert, so will I change<br />

When the devil appeared, I locked him in a box<br />

Sure if it opened, that he would eat me up<br />

Oh, how I feared at what my fate might be<br />

I couldn't see, locked in that box, that love held the key<br />

Strands disentwine, and realign, an egg divides, cells multiply<br />

And so I'm told that I was born of halves, and I then so remained<br />

Halves reunite a single slave<br />

The mind a lorn enclave both hateful and attrite,<br />

The body turned a grave of muddy appetites<br />

If the truth is an open mind, love is an open heart<br />

Love cannot be unkind, love is blind<br />

The mind is a deathcamp apart from love so divine<br />

Love in it's own time, love has it's own designs<br />

The mingling of two souls in transformation, encoded in this chain<br />

Through all transfiguration, all essence must remain, all is changelessly in change<br />

Come out, the winter's over, come out into the day<br />

Come out, the winter's over, no season ever stays<br />

All is changelessly in change<br />

If the truth is an open mind, love is an open heart<br />

Love cannot be unkind, love is blind<br />

The mind is a deathcamp apart, from the love of an open heart<br />

Love in it's own time, love is divine, love has it's own designs<br />

Love is changelessly in change<br />

Love is change
