SPIKE
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..Hmmmhmmmm.
(Em)
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,
E (5 fr.)
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.
So let me rest in peace.
Why won't you let me rest in peace?
