Lyrics
[verse]
You walk in wearing shadows like a jacket
Every question just gets turned around
Nobody knows what's really in that silence
Nobody's cracked the secret that you've found
[verse]
You collect the broken pieces of the strangers
Wear their stories like they're all your own
Half a saint and half a quiet danger
Never quite alone, never quite known
[chorus]
You keep building up a mystery
Layer after layer, a puzzle no one solves
You keep building up a mystery
While the whole room just revolves
Around the space you leave behind you
Around the questions that you raise
You keep building up a mystery
Lost in your own maze
[verse]
Candlelight can't seem to find your edges
Every mirror shows a different face
You collect the lonely ones like pledges
Give them shelter in your strange embrace
[chorus]
You keep building up a mystery
Layer after layer, a puzzle no one solves
You keep building up a mystery
While the whole room just revolves
Around the space you leave behind you
Around the questions that you raise
You keep building up a mystery
Lost in your own maze
[bridge]
Maybe someday you'll unravel
Maybe someday I'll get through
Till then I'll keep on with the travel
Trying to understand the view
[chorus]
You keep building up a mystery
Layer after layer, a puzzle no one solves
You keep building up a mystery
While the whole room just revolves
Around the space you leave behind you
Around the questions that you raise
You keep building up a mystery
Lost in your own maze
