Let Me Rest In Peace Lyrics

Let Me Rest In Peace lyrics

I died 

So many years ago 

And you can make me feel 

Like it isn't so 

But 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 

But whisper in a dead man's ear 

It doesn't make it real 



That's great 

But I don't wanna 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 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 got a willing slave 

You just love to play the thought 

That you might misbehave 

Till you do,

I'm telling you 

Stop visiting my grave 

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 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
