Lyrics Rest in Peace - Buffy The Vampire Slayer Cast

Rest in Peace

I died so 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.
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 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 sayin' 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.
Until you do, I’m tellin' 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?
