Mystery Builder

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?
You're so beautiful
With an edge and charm
but so careful
When I'm in your arms
You woke up screaming aloud
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
You're a beautiful
A beautiful fucked up man
You're setting up your
Razor wire shrine
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
You're building a mystery

Building A Mystery by Sarah Mclachlan

Beautiful song. I had this sum years ago then I lost it. But I rem it again ytdy n dl-ed it. Fell in for it 2nd time. While I was tryin to get into sleep last night and I was listenin to this, a question begs the answer came to me,

why haven any, at least not in my acknowledge, rock acts make a cover version of this with heavier guitar plays in it??

its fits perfectly to the personas nowadays wit its dark n vampiric lyrics (think twilight - Death Cab) and the elements of goth n all is in it.

Time After Time covered by Quietdrive got so good it arguably surpassed Cyndi Laupers household hit.

haven they found this out?

Well, I guess thats a mystery. lol.
