Building a Mystery
Sarah McLachlan
You come out at night that's when the energy comes And the dark side's light and the vampires ro..am You strut your rasta wear and your suicide poem And a cross from a faith that died before jesus came You're building a mystery You live in a church where you sleep with voodoo dolls And you won't give up the search for the ghosts in the halls You wear your sandals in the snow and A smile that won't wash away Can you look out the window Without your shadow gettin in the way You're so beautiful with an edge and a charm So careful when I'm in you're arms 'Cause you're working, building a mystery Holding on and holding it in Yeah you're working, building a mystery And choosing so carefully You woke up screaming aloud a prayer from your secret god And you feed off our fears and hold back your tears Give us a tantrum and through it all grin just when we need one when the evenings thin You're a beautiful, a beautiful fucked up man You're setting up your razor wire shrine Cause you're working, building a mystery Holding on and holding it in Yeah you're working, building a mystery And choosing so carefully Yeah you're working, building a mystery Holding on and holding it in Yeah you're working, building a mystery Building a mystery
