Kiss Of Life Lyrics

Lay down my shield shaped like a woman
Take off my armour made for a man
Let go of the thought of anyone
Who claims to know who I am

Lay down the sword I named a lie
Put down the dagger I called the truth
So that nothing blurs my choice
Between to live or to die

In return for the kiss of life
Kiss of life

I remeber the taste of our kiss, babe, so
bittersweet
You bite your lip, make me taste the blood
A rose between two pairs of sharp, white teeth

In return for the kiss of life
Kiss of life

Man dies
Woman dies
But the kiss lives
It passes from lip to lip
>From age to age

In return for the kiss of life
Kiss of life

I recall the story of another sacrifice
Abraham and Isaac and a lack of vice
Pick up the bible from my desk
I'm ready to read all about it
