Let Sleeping Dogs Die

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
