Rest in Peace? Lyrics by Yours, River

Yours, River

2020

[Verse 1]
Maybe I want to be left alone to some degree
A mind in isolation is destined to be free
Maybe I want a girl to make her happy all the time
Who knows she's more than just a prize for me
Maybe I want to see the world around me in agony
So I can understand how to proceed
Maybe all my love started with generosity
But through her eyes all that she saw was greed
[Chorus]
Finger painting on the wall
Maybe one or two of you for keeping
Oh, you smile behind my canvas
Eyelids brush my dreams when I am sleeping
Why you wanna do the things you do to me?
I wanna feel your breathing
Oh, it's just a world of hate
I see it everyday
Blood on the street
Oh, it's just a world of hate
We scream and order names to Rest In Peace
Rest In Peace
[Verse 2]
Maybe I wanna write a song with deep and cutting lines
Of heartbreak, paranoia, and to justice I'm inclined
Maybe through meandering the city I will find
A sense of what it means to be alive
Maybe my voice is the weapon bestowed onto me
And my six strings will lead a cavalry
Maybe if she saw today how I turned out to be
She'd bow her head and smile and tell me, "See?"
[Chorus]
Finger painting on the wall
Maybe one or two of you for keeping
Oh, you smile behind my canvas
Eyelids brush my dreams when I am sleeping
Why you wanna do the things you do to me?
I wanna feel your breathing
Oh, it's just a world of hate
I see it everyday
Blood on the street
Oh, it's just a world of hate
We scream and order names to Rest In Peace
Rest In Peace
[Chorus]
Finger painting on the wall
Maybe one or two of you for keeping
Oh, you smile behind my canvas
Eyelids brush my dreams when I am sleeping
Why you wanna do the things you do to me?
I wanna feel your breathing
Oh, it's just a world of hate
I see it everyday
Blood on the street
Oh, it's just a world of hate
We scream and order names to Rest In Peace
Rest In Peace
