Taylor Swift - The Story of Us

"The story of us" lyrics

The story of us

I used to think one day
We'd tell the story of us
How we met and how sparks flew instantly
People would say 'they're the lucky ones'
I used to know my place was a spot next to you
Now I'm searching the room
For an empty seat
Cause lately I don't even know
What page you're on
Oh, a simple complication,
Miscommunication's lead to a fall out
So many things that I wish you knew
So many walls up I can't break through

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
Like it's killing me, yeah, I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate, when it all broke down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now

Next Chapter

How'd we end up this way you see me nervously
Pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy
And you're doing your best to avoid me
I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us
How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
But you held your pride like you should've held me
Oh, I'm scared to see the ending, why are we pretending
This is nothing, I'd tell you I miss you
But I don't know how,
I've never heard silence quite this loud

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
Like it's killing me, yeah, I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate, When it all broke down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now

This is looking like a contest
Of who can act like they care less
But I liked it better when you were on my side
The battle's in your hands now
But I would lay my armour down
If you say you'd rather love than fight
So many things that you wish I knew
But the story of us might be ending soon

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room
And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
Like it's killing me, yeah, I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate, When it all broke down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, now

And we're not speaking
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
Like it's killing me, yeah, I don't know what to say
Since a twist of fate, cause we're going down
And the story of us
Looks a lot like a tragedy now
