Song title: Sarah McLachlan - Building A Mystery (Live On Radio 2)

Edit By: 216.73.216.68

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, oh

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?

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
 Oh 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, oh

You're so 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
 Oh yeah, you're working, building a mystery
 And choosing so carefully

Oooh, you're working, building a mystery
 Say you're 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
 And choosing so carefully, oh

You're building a mystery
