Safety Blanket Lyrics by Kylee Chester Music by Raiah Rofsky Sung by Vanessa Porras I feel your hand slip away And you disappear into the sea Of laughter and music and Eyes staring at me But I have to keep calm Before they see just how Much I need you with me But how dare you leave and Let me become small when There’s people around me that loom so tall (chorus)
Because you’re my safety blanket The only familiar face in a space Where I have no place I’m suffocating in the corner, With my world spinning fast, But the only thing people see is the mask hiding the truth My eyes dart around the room, searching for something to save me I feel my heartbeat in my ears as my thoughts run screaming I’m falling apart and I can’t see you I’m on the verge of tears and I need you (chorus)
Because you’re my safety blanket The only familiar face in a space Where I have no place. ➎
