Rest In Peace

Blood on my hands what’s done is done
Left you by the road with the crows in the dust
Heart so hollow, deep as a cave
One day I’ll be dancing on your grave
Takin it back the life you stole
Every little piece you took of my soul
Now I lay you down to sleep
And 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 laying roses on your bones
No tears no 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
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
