Rest In Peace lyrics

I died so many years ago,
You can make me feel like it isn t so,
Why you come to be with me,
I think I finally know...
You re scared... ashamed of what you feel,
And you can t tell the ones you love,
You know they couldn t deal,
Whisper in a dead man s ear,
That doesn t make it real...
That s great but i don t wanna play,
Cos being with you touches me more than I could say,
And since I m only dead to you,
I m saying stay away,
And let me rest in peace

Let me rest in peace, let me get some sleep,
Let me take my love and bury it in a hole six foot deep,
I can lay my body down, but I can t find my sweet release,
So let me rest in peace....

You know you got a willing slave,
And you just love to play the thought where you might misbehave,
Until you do I m telling you stop visiting my grave,
And let me rest in peace

I know I should go,
But I follow you like a man possessed,
There s a traitor here beneath my breast,
And it hurts me more than you ve ever guessed,
If my heart could beat it would break my chest,
But I can see you re unimpressed,
So leave me be...

And let me rest in peace, let me get some sleep,
Let me take my love and bury it in a hole six foot deep,
I can lay my body down, but i can t find my sweet release,
Let me rest in peace, why won t you let me rest in peace.
