There's the crime of passion
|
And the crime of revenge
|
But the worst crime of all
|
Is the crime of regret
|
Speak of the devil
|
And the devil may speak of you
|
Why can we
|
Let sleeping dogs die
|
|
Deep, it cuts deep
|
And the affection it grows
|
And heaven only knows
|
What you were to earth
|
And the giving birth
|
To the giving rounds of judgement
|
And by fact of reason you accuse of treason
|
Claim betrayal to the Holy Ghost
|
Of the sacred past
|
Its fading fast and forever
|
|
You took my hand
|
And turned it over
|
Why can't we let sleeping dogs die
|
No devil so dark
|
As the devil I knew
|
There's no love lost
|
And no reason why
|
|
Talk, of faith you talk
|
But you were the one intent on stun
|
You took my glory and pride
|
Sanctity defied
|
And you never knew
|
What the gods could bring
|
By playing the game
|
Of whose to blame
|
It gets harder all the time
|
To put my trust in you
|
So reverence please
|
Let sleeping dogs die
|
|
Let sleeping dogs die
|
Let sleeping dogs die
|
