==Composition==
Both versions of the song contain reversed lyrics, voiced by Utada herself. The reversed lyrics are in English in both versions. They include; "My heart's a battleground" which is played in English even in the Japanese version of the song. The reversed portion of the songs are "I need more affection than you know"; in the "Battleground" sections, "So many ups and downs" and "I need true emotions" are the two other examples of the reversed lyrics.

At the end of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', and ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', a different version, called -after the battle- is used. This version is much quieter for most of the song until the ending part of it, which uses a faster instrumental than the rest of the song.
===Variations===
'''Passion''' is the original, Japanese version of "Sanctuary"; it was originally released on Utada's ''{{w|Ultra Blue}}'' album.
