I've died...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,
mmmmmm.

You're scared, ashamed of what you feel,
And you can't tell the ones you love, you know they couldn't deal,
A whisper in the dead mans ear, it doesnt make it real.

That 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 six feet deep,
I can lie my body down but can't find my sweet release,
So let me rest in peace.

You know, you got a willing slave,
And you just like 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 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 six feet deep,
I can lie my body down but can't find my sweet release,
Let me rest in peace,
Why won't you let me rest in peace
