Sandcastle

(One, two, three, four) The whole world is made of sand I feel it slipping through my hands It's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle I did it right, screwed everything on tight I made a wish and it made me feel alright I pray to God that I live another day To keep building up this fantasy You won't believe all the energy it took Every page I was living by the book I never thought that it all would come to this Little bliss turning into ignorance I tried to make it stay A wave came and washed it all away The whole world is made of sand I feel it slipping through my hands It's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle And it's a bunch of fun and games But I don't really wanna play Oh, it's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle I don't like being stuck up late at night Deadlines never ending in my sight I'm gonna crash, gonna burn out 'til the end Then wake up and do it all again I can't resist, 'cause I like the way it feels I'm a proud little hamster on my wheel Gonna brag 'bout the things I did today The scientists keep scribbling away But I'm not ashamed I admit we're all wasting away The whole world is made of sand I feel it slipping through my hands It's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle And it's a bunch of fun and games But I don't really wanna play Oh, it's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle The whole world is made of sand I feel it slipping through my hands It's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle And it's a bunch of fun and games But I don't really wanna play Oh, it's a shame, it's a hustle Living in a sandcastle, yeah
