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]
