Transfigured Heart Songtext
von Ghost Twin

I saw where he kept it, quite by accident
In a secret compartment behind a framed naval chart
If I bide my time until the whole house falls silent
Half-night hide my face, if not the terrible beat
Of my wanton, indiscreet human heart


Fears echo the halls as the full chambers pound
Hard to believe the whole city would wake without sound
Nothing in nature can ever compare to this
Empyreal spiral of opaline gold
Possible still that my freemason uncle somehow
Hid this hidden away, but it′s there and I must
Have a look, at least now that I know

Letting the blue velvet gently unfold
Revealing a sparkle in the unaccountable
How my body aches with no fever to touch
Knowing full well that a touch on the surface
Is never enough

Finding a corner where the old panelled wall
Meets the red walk on the back
Bracing the home which burns and chills me equally
And with leverage now pressed through my breast
How serene the heartland
