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 my life, I give her hope
I spend her love, until she's broke inside
The story of my life

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 now
I'll see us in the light upon your ear
Althought I'm broken
My heart's 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 my life, I give her hope
I spend her love, until she's broke inside
The story of my life
