Blanket
Blanket (Album Version) - UrbanSpecies/Imogen Heap
Written by:Peter Akinr
Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket
Emotionless this 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
De de yeah
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
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
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 was Chuck D
And like Marvin Gaye makes me wanna holler
When the music hits me I feel no pain
Thats 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
Was see
I be only who I wanna be
My blanket covers me
Music is my blanket where music is my blanket
I see only what I wanna see
I'll be only
Who I wanna be
My blanket covers me
Music is my blanket where the 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
