Blanket - Urban Species Feat. Imogen Heap

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
yeah-ah
My blanket covers me, yes

Yeah, check it
Yeah as a human i was bored and pumpin breakin on the lino(?)
Traded in my lino for a pad and a biro
Used to stand in line so's I can sign my gyro(?)
But now my ends are meet I did the best way that I know
Tsk skkkk tsh and the beats that go boom
See the music I consume to escape the doom and gloom
All the beats & melodies
That keep realities at bay
But what happen when the records sounds start to fade away, fade away

I see only what I wanna see
I'll be only what I wanna be
yeah-ah
My blanket covers me, yes

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 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 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, the trouble down the drain

I see only what I wanna see
I'll be only who I wanna be
yeah-ah, yeah-ah

My blanket covers me

Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket

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

Music is my sanctuary
Music is my blanket
