Lyrics Akira Yamaoka

Akira Yamaoka

Tender Sugar

I run, I fall, I drift away

Check my body now, was it body or soul?

The darkness fades, fades to the light

Disappearing now, disappears from the night

And all these nightmares I once had as a child

The morning always came, it came too late

What did my mind forget, forget to hide?

Could the nightmare be awake?

I don't know

In or out, up or down

Never know it's an illusion

Round and round, on and on

Every day spins my confusion

Not again not again not again

From this dream I can't awake

What is real what is real what is real?

It's getting hard for me to take

What I need what I need what I need

A little something I rely

And the white sugar gently hides me

Oh the sweet sugar saves me

It's the room that confines me

Yesterday, back and forth

Broken door no longer opens

Breakin down, need it now

Mother's sugar always loves me
