Dorothy – Rest In Peace Lyrics

 

Rest In Peace Lyrics by Dorothy

 

Blood on my hands, what’s done is done
Left you by the road with the crows and the dust
Heart so hollow, deep as a cave
One day I’ll be dancing on your grave
Taking it back, the life you stole
Every little piece you took of my soul
Now I lay you down to sleep
And I pray with the devil you rest in peace

You can’t hang your chains on me
When you’re six feet deep
This heart ain’t yours to bleed
Now that yours no longer beats
Hallelujah, I’m over you, yeah
I buried you, oh Lord, you’re dead to me
Rest in peace

Black umbrella in the pouring rain
No preacher, no prayer to cry your name
A little to late to right your wrongs
No one’s laying roses on your bones
No tears or loving memories
Long is the road out of hell and the misery
So by my decree

You can’t hang your chains on me
When you’re six feet deep
This heart ain’t yours to bleed
Now that yours no longer beats
Hallelujah, I’m over you, yeah
I buried you, oh Lord, you’re dead to me
Rest in peace, oh yeah

You can’t hurt me now
Can’t hold me down
What’s done is done
You can’t hurt me now
Can’t hold me down
I’ve had enough
Oh Lord, you’re dead to me
So I lay you down, I lay you down to sleep

You can’t hang your chains on me
When you’re six feet deep
This heart ain’t yours to bleed
Now that yours no longer beats
Hallelujah, I’m over you, yeah
I buried you, oh Lord, you’re dead to me
(Rest in peace, rest in peace, rest in peace)
Lord, you’re dead to me
(Rest in peace, rest in peace, rest in peace)
Rest in peace
Rest in peace
