Kesa Lyrics & Tabs by Michael John LaChiusa

guitar chords lyrics
Tonight I kiss my lover for the last time
Hee comes for me at midnight, slipping past the gate
Floating to my bed
I'll let his hands caress me for the last time
He knifes into my body
Forcibly and proud
My lover is incredibly endowed
Thicker than my husband
And as I kiss my lover for the last time
The room disolves around me
I desert my body
All of time is gone
Dusk is dawn
Dawn is noon
Late is now
Dusk is dawn
Dawn is noon
Late is now
Now is soon
This is what its like to be God
I watch myself outside myself
Sleep and breath and wake and sigh
Laugh and kiss and fuck and lie
My god, it's hell to be God
Watching from a distance
I neither laugh nor cry
As the flood gates are open
And the innocent die
A lie becomes the truth and the truth becomes a lie
Lie
Tonight I kiss my lover for the last time
My husband knows our secret
I've confessed my guilt
I'll end my lover's life
and I'll return to my body
To my four cornered room
What I've set in motion
Cannot be reversed
Time will resume
Time
Time
Time
