The Sandbox Songtext
von Bears in Trees

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 this 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 this 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 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 never seem to go

Looking at the flowers on my desk
Thinking they will wilt someday
Thinking about my pets now
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 this 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 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 never seem to go
I was sitting in my sandbox

Thinking about everything I′ve done wrong
And 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 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
