The Story of Us (Taylor’s Version)

I used to think one day we'd tell the story of usHow we met and sparks flew instantlyPeople would say 'They're the lucky ones'I used to know my place was a spot next to youNow I'm searching the room for an empty seat'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're onA simple complication, miscommunicationHas lead to falloutToo many things that I wish you knewSo many walls up I can't break throughNow I'm standing alone in a crowded roomAnd we're not speakingAnd I'm dying to knowIs it killing you like it's killing me?And I don't know what to saySince the twist of fateWhen it all broke downAnd the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy nowNext chapterHow'd we end up this way?Se me nervously pulling at my clothesAnd trying to look busyAnd you're doing your best to avoid meI'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of usHow I was losing my mind when I saw you hereBut you held your pride like you should've held meI'm scared to see the endingWhy are we pretending this is nothing?I'd tell you I miss you but I don't know howI've never heard silence quite this loudNow I'm standing alone in a crowded roomAnd we're not speakingAnd I'm dying to knowIs it killing you like it's killing me?And I don't know what to saySince the twist of fateWhen it all broke downAnd the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy nowThis is looking like a contestOf who can act like they care lessBut I liked it better when you were on my sideThe battle's in your hands nowBut I will lay my armor downIf you say you'd rather love than fightSo many things that you wish I knewBut the story of us might be ending soonNow I'm standing alone in a crowded roomAnd we're not speakingAnd I'm dying to knowIs it killing you like it's killing me?But I don't know what to saySince the twist of fateAnd it all broke downAnd the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy nowNow, nowAnd we're not speakingAnd I'm dying to knowIs it killing you like it's killing me?I don't know what to saySince the twist of fate'Cause we're going downAnd the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy nowThe End
