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
She told me in the morning she 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 her 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 her hope 
I spend her love until she’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 

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 her 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 her hope 
I spend her love until she’s broke inside 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)

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 her home 
I drive all night to keep her warm and time 
Is frozen

The story of my life I give her hope (give her hope) 
I spend her love until she’s broke inside (until she’s broken inside) 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of) 
The story of my life 
The story of my life (the story of, the story of) 
The story of my life.
