[Verse 1]
I bought myself a sandbox
Somewhere I can bury my head
I'm tryna make the voices stop
Don't wanna hear what they said
They told me there's a brand new Holocaust
They asked if I'd be takin' a stand
I said I'd rather keep my world small
So I keep to myself
You know I gotta turn my mind off
Just so I can sleep in my bed
I'm gonna let my brain rot
Ignore the blood on my hands
[Chorus]
I never wanted the truth, I only wanted the peace
Why bother watching the news? It's not what I want to see
There's nothing that I can do until it happens to me
Until it happens to me
[Verse 2]
I'm gonna buy myself a sandbox
Somеwhere I can bury my head
What happеned to the spine I lost?
It's gettin' harder to stand
I'm gonna build myself a big wall
I'll never see what I don't want to again
I close my eyes and then it's gone
Like it doesn't exist
[Chorus]
I never wanted the truth, I only wanted the peace
Why bother watching the news? It's not what I want to see
There's nothing that I can do until it happens to me
Better it happen to you than let it happen to me
I never wanted the truth, I only wanted the peace
Why bother watching the news? It's not what I want to see
There's nothing that I can do until it happens to me
Until it happens to me
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
I'm gonna buy myself a sandbox
Somewhere I can bury my head
I'm gonna buy myself a sandbox
