Imogen Heap Lyrics

"Blanket" lyrics


Music is my sanctuary,
Music is my blanket.

Emotionless this city lies,
Cruel it is, it clouds my eyes.
The dark, 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, yeah.

Now as a human I was bored,
And pumping, breaking on the lino.
Traded in my lino for a,
Pad and a biro.
Used to stand in line,
Just so I could sign my gyro.
But now my ends are meet,
I did the best way that I know.
T-Tsk and the beats that go boom,
See the music I consume,
To escape the doom and gloom.
All the beats and melodies,
That keep realities at bay.
But what happen when the records,
On the start 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 Nelly Nell,
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,
It makes me wanna holler.
But when the music hits me,
I feel no pain.
That's why I got to 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 it goes,
Trouble down the drain.

I see only what I wanna see,
I'll be only who I wanna be.
My blanket covers me, yeah.

Music is my sanctuary,
Music is my blanket.

I see only what I wanna see,
I'll be only who I wanna be.
My blanket covers me, yeah.

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.
