The Sandbox One

(album: Just Five More Minutes - 2017)

Dragging my knuckles along brick walls
Running my fingers across my hand
I can hear them hanging out in the hall
But I don't know if they'd understand

You're a sandbox
(You're a sandbox)
You're a sandbox
(You're a sandbox)
All my joints begin to lock
Sitting in your sandbox

Dragging my knuckles along brick walls
Running my fingers across my hand
I can hear them hanging out in the hall
But I don't know if they'd understand

You're a sandbox
(You're a sandbox)
You're a sandbox
(You're a sandbox)
All my joints begin to lock
Sitting in your sandbox

And I find granules in my trainers
And stuck between my toes
And I find granules in my pockets
No matter what I try, you'll never seem to go

And I find granules behind my ears
And all over my clothes
And I find granules in my pockets
No matter what I try, you'll never seem to go

I've been looking at the flowers on my desk
Thinking they will wilt someday
Thinking about my pet snail
And how even they ran away

You're a sandbox
(You're a sandbox)
You're a sandbox
(You're a sandbox)
All my joints are beginning to lock
Sitting in your sandbox

And I find granules in my trainers
And stuck between my toes
And I find granules in my pockets
No matter what I try, you'll never seem to go

And I find granules behind my ears
And all over my clothes
And I find granules in my pockets
No matter what I try, you'll never seem to go

I was sitting in my sandbox
Thinking about everything I've done wrong
And then I thought about the time on the beach
When me and Nick tried not to write another sad song

And I find granules in my trainers
And stuck between my toes
And I find granules in my pockets
No matter what I try, you'll never seem to go

And I find granules behind my ears
And all over my clothes
And I find granules in my pockets
I need these granules to show me how much I've grown
