Rest In Peace Lyrics - Singles - Buffy The Vampire Slayer

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 

It doesn't make it real, that's great 

Well, 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 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 

That 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 

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?
