<b>Building a mistery</b> by <i>Sarah McLachlan</i><br />you come out at night

that's when the energy comes

and the dark side's light

and the vempires roam

you strut your rasta wear

and you 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 sandals in the snow

and a smile that won't wash away

can you look out the window

without your shadow getting in the way

oh you're so beautiful

with an edge and a charm

but so careful when i'm in your 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 sreaming aloud

a prayer from your secret god

you feed off our fears

and hold back your tears

give us a tantrum and a know it all again

just when we need one

when the evening's thin

oh 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
