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
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
you woke up screaming 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 grin
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
[Chorus]
[Repeat chorus]
