Rest In Peace
I couldn't get this tune out of my head for weeks,
so I gave in and just used it. Interpret it as you will.

[----------Verse 1----------]
You thought you were,
As bright as the sun
As deep as the ocean
Where the river runs
Full with emotion
As big as the earth
As vacant as space
But I’ve never seen someone
Look so afraid
[----------End Verse----------]
[----------Chorus----------]
To die - your’re dead
Caught in the act
Shot through the head
Stabbed in the back
But I’ve never seen someone
Look more alive
Lying face down
In the cold - dark – night
Rest In Peace…
I know you're better off
Rest In Peace…
You weren't that tough at all
[----------End Chorus----------]
[----------Verse 2----------]
You thought you were,
As great as a god
As high as a mountain
Where no roads can run
Because of the ground, and
As strong as a bull
As swift as a snake
But I've never seen someone
Look more afraid
[----------End Verse----------]
[----------Chorus----------]
To die - your’re dead
Caught in a trap
Shot through the chest
Kicked in the ass
But I’ve never seen someone
Look more alive
Lying face down
In the cold - damp - night
Rest In Peace…
I know you're better off
Rest In Peace…
You weren't so tough at all
[----------End Chorus----------]
[----------Outro----------]
You weren’t so tough at all…
But you thought you were, invincible
No, you weren’t so tough at all…
Now you know, you weren’t invincible
--Fade--
Rest In Peace….
I know you’re better off
Rest In Peace….
You weren’t so tough at all
[----------End Outro----------]

High up on her shelf
She would knock it over
And make the world stand still
If faith was in her left hand
And love was in her right
She'd put them both together
