[Verse 1]
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 hallway she don't feel the same about us in her bones
It seems to me that when I go these words will be written on my own

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
The story of my life I take her home
I'm by her side 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 my love until I'm broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)

[Verse 2]
Written on these walls are the colors that 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 the hill
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed still

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
The story of my life I take her home
I'm by her side 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 my love until I'm broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)

[Bridge]
And I been waiting for this time to come around
But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds
The story of my life I take her home
I'm by her side to keep her warm and time
Is frozen

[Chorus]
The story of my life I give her hope (give her hope)
I spend my love until I'm broke 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
