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]
