How long? how far?
not ripped away
took my body now
was it body or soul?
the darkness fades, fades to the light
disappearing now; disappears from the night

and all these ages i've wandered as a child
the morning always came; it came too late
what made 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
everyday spins my confusion

not again, not again, not again
this dream; i cannot wake
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
the little something i delight
and the white sugar gently hides me

oh, the sweet sugar saves me
it's the room that confines me, confines me
sweet sugar

yesterday; back and forth
broken door no longer opens
breaking down; need it now
love is short; he'll always owe me

not again, not again, not again
this dream; i cannot wake
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
the little something i delight
and the white sugar gently hides me

oh, the sweet sugar saves me
it's the room that confines me
