Written in these walls are the stories 
that I can’t explain 
I leave my heart open 
but it stays right here empty for days 

He told me in the morning he don’t feel the same about us in her bones 
It seems to me that when I die these words will be written on my stone 

And I’ll be gone, gone tonight 
The ground beneath my feet is open wide 
The way that I been holdin’ on too tight 
With nothing in between 

The story of my life I take him  home 
I drive all night to keep her warm and time 
Is frozen (the story of, the story of) 
The story of my life I give him hope 
I spend him love until he’s broke inside 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of) 

Written on these walls are the colours 
I can’t change 
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage 

And I’ll be gone, gone tonight 
The fire beneath my feet is burning bright 
The way that I been holdin’ on so tight 
With nothing in between 

The story of my life I take him home 
I drive all night to keep her warm and time 
Is frozen (the story of, the story of) 
The story of my life I give him hope 
I spend her love until she’s broke inside 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of) 

The story of my life I take him home 
I drive all night to keep him warm and time 
Is frozen
