Blanket Lyrics - Singles - Imogen Heap

Music is my sanctuary 

Music is my blanket 

Emotionless the city lies 

Cruel it is, it clouds my eyes 

The dull the dark shades on my day 

I live inside this place 

Locked up inside my metal cage 

Always tense and filled with rage 

Above the concrete fields below 

With you i wanna go, wanna go 

Music is my sanctuary 

Music is my blanket 

I see only what i wanna see 

I'll be only what i wanna be 

My blanket covers me, yes 

"Yeah, check it 

Now as a yout man I was body poppin' breakin' on the lino 

Traded in my lino for a pad and a biro 

Used to stand in line just so as I could sign my giro 

But now my ends meet in the best way that I know 

(Hat, snare, kick) and the beats that go boom 

See the music I consume to escape the doom and gloom 

All the beats and melodies keep realities at bay 

But what happens when the records done and starts to fade away" 

Alone within myself again 

I try to veil away my pain 

The dirty grey surrounding me 'round 

And now I hear no sound 

"I feel like Melle Mel from way back in the days 

As i wonder how i keep from going under 

I got trouble on my mind like my name is chuck d 

And like Marvin Gaye it makes me wanna holler 

When the music hits me I feel no pain 

That's why i gotta put you on again and again 

I take the needle off the technics and put it in my vein 

All my troubles get crushed as the rush hits my brain 

And away goes trouble down the drain" 

I see only what I wanna see 

I be only who I wanna be 

My blanket covers me 

Music is my sanctuary 

Music is my blanket 

I see only what I wanna see 

I be only who I wanna be 

My blanket covers me 

Music is my sanctuary 

Music is my blanket 

You are my living world 

You are my living world 

You are you are you are my 

My only living world.
