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 his 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 him warm and time 
Is frozen  
The story of my life I give him hope 
I spend his love until he’s broke inside 
The story of my life

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

I know that in the morning 
I'll see us in the light upon a hill 
Although I am broken my heart is untamed still 

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 him warm and time 
Is frozen  
The story of my life I give him hope 
I spend his love until he’s broke inside 
The story of my life
 
And I been waiting for this time [bad word] around 
But [bad word] after you is like chasing the clouds 
 
The story of my life I take him home 
I drive all night to keep him warm and time 
Is frozen 

The story of my life I give him hope
I spend his love until he’s broke inside
The story of my life 
The story of my life 
The story of my life 
The story of my life.
