Sarah McLachlan

building a mystery acoustic

You come out at night
That's when the energy comes
And the dark sides light
And the vampires roam
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 ghost in the halls
You wear sandals in the snow
When a smile won't wash away
And can you look out the window
Without your shadow getting in the way
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, 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
You feed off our fears
And hold back your tears, oh
You give us a tantrum
And a know it all grin
Just when we need one
When the evening's 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, holding it in
Yeah, you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
(Lead).
Ouh, you're working
Building a mystery....................
........... Holding it in
Yeah, you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
Oh Yeah, you're working
Building a mystery
Holding on, holding it in
Yeah, you're working
Building a mystery
And choosing so carefully
You're Building a mystery.
