James Marsters Let Me Rest in Peace Lyrics

I've died, so many years ago.
You can make me feel like it isn't so
Why you come be with me!
I think I finally know...
You're scared.
Ashamed of what you feel.
You can't tell the ones you love,
You know they couldn't deal.
Whisper in a dead man's ear doesn't make it real.
That's great...
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 of 6 feet 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 it though
You may misbehave.
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 traitor here beneath my breast.
And it hurts me more than you ever guessed
If my heart could beat,
It would break my chest.
But I can see you are 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 of 6 feet deep.
I can lay my body down
But I can't find my sweet release.
So let me rest in peace!
Why won't you let me rest in peace?
