 I died  so many years  ago,
 But you  can make me feel  like  it isnt  so.
 Your  scared, ashamed of what  you feel,
 But  you cant tell the  ones you love, you  know they couldnt  deal.
 But whispering  in a dead  mans  ear doesnt make  it real.
 Thats  great, but I dont want  to play,
 Because  being with you touches  me, more  than I can  say.
 And since  Im only dead  to you Im 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 thats 6 feet deep!
 I can lay  my body down  but I cant find  my sweet release.
 So let  me rest  in peace!
 You know youve got a willing slave,
 And you just love to play the part that you might misbehave.
 Until you do Im telling you stop visiting my grave.
 And let me rest in peace!
