Let Me Rest In Peace

I died,
too many years ago
You can make me feel,
like it isn't so.
And why you come to be with me,
I think I finally know…
Mmmm, mmm
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
It doesn't make it real....
That's great, but I don't wanna play
Cuz’ being with you touches me more than I can say.
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 6 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’ve got a willing slave.
And you just love to play the part
And you might misbehave.
But till 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.
Let me rest in peace
let me get some sleep
Let me take my love and bury it
In a hole 6 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?
