Sandcastles Lyrics » Beyonce
[Verse 1]
We built sandcastles that washed away
I made you cry when I walked away, oh
And although I promised that I couldn’t stay, baby
Every promise don’t work out that way, oh, babe
Every promise don’t work out that way
[Verse 2]
Dishes smashed on my counter from our last encounter
Pictures snatched out the frame
Bitch, I scratched out your name and your face
What is it about you that I can’t erase, baby?
When every promise don’t work out that way, no, no, babe
When every promise don’t work out that way
[Verse 3]
And your heart is broken ’cause I walked away
Show me your scars and I won’t walk away, oh
And I know I promised that I couldn’t stay, baby
Every promise don’t work out that way, no, no, no, no, no
Every promise don’t work out that way

About Beyonce’s Sandcastles from Lemonade (2016)
“Sandcastles” is a one of the few ballads on the album. Beyoncé’s vocals are raw and wounded, but newly hopeful.
The pared-down video that accompanies the track shows Beyoncé sitting cross-legged at a keyboard with headphones on as she hoarsely sings into a microphone. The camera pans across the sparse room to show signs of a failed or broken relationship—wilted flowers, a cracked bowl, weathered and faded photographs.
These shots are interspersed with intimate moments between Bey and Jay. Jay’s wedding ring is visible as she kisses his hand, they hug and stare in to each other’s eyes. These tender acts can be viewed as Jay’s surrender, and Beyoncé’s acceptance of his wrongdoings.
Like the waves that wash “Sandcastles” away, reality has tested this marriage and the promises that were made. Now Beyoncé starts to think about what comes next.

FAQs About Sandcastles
Who is this about?
Beyoncé sings about Jay Z in “Sandcastles.” While most of the first half of LEMONADE is centered around distancing herself from Jay, in the second half of the album, Beyoncé shows her love for her husband. The visuals of this song also contain many important and touching moments in Bey and Jay’s relationship.
Why there’s not an “Explicit” symbol next to the title of this song on iTunes ?
An article on NPR
answered the question I’ve often wondered myself:
“Just wanted to let you know, there is no rule on this. It is completely voluntary to put the PA sticker on a record. Maybe that’s one of the ones you already knew though, haha. Hope I helped!”
However, it’s worth noting that large retailers like Target and Walmart shy away from carrying albums with the “Explicit” symbol on the cover, so that may be why some labels opt not to label their music as “Explicit” at all, whether on physical or digital releases.
Does Beyoncé really play the piano like she did in the video?
Beyonce is an awesome performer, but it’s most likely that Bey was only pretending to play piano for the camera this time around. The album credits
Vincent Berry II
with the beautiful piano accompaniment on “Sandcastles.”
