sarah mclachlan - building a mystery (acoustic) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
you come out at night
that’s when the energy comes
and the dark side’s 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

[verse 2]
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

[chorus]
’cause you’re working
building a mystery
holding on and holding it in
yeah, you’re working
building a mystery
and choosing so carefully
[verse 3]
you woke up screaming aloud, ah
a prayer from your secret god
you feed off our fears
and hold back your tears
oh, give us a tantrum
and a know+it+all grin
just when we need one
when the evening’s thin

[bridge]
well, you’re so beautiful
a beautiful messed up man
you’re setting up your
razor wire shrine

[chorus]
’cause you’re working
building a mystery
holding on and holding it in
yeah, you’re working
building a mystery
and choosing so carefully

[instrumental break]
[chorus]
ooh, 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
and choosing so carefully
building a mystery
