James Marsters Rest In Peace Lyrics

Rest In Peace Lyrics

I died
So many years ago
But you can make me feel
Like it isn’t
so
And why you come to be with me
I think I finally
know
Mmm-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
That doesn’t make it real

That’s
great
But I don’t want to play
'Cause being with you
Touches me more
than I can 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
You might misbehave
But 'til 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?
