The Story of Us

Taylor Swift

I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us 
And how we met 
And how the sparks flew instantly 
And people would say they're the lucky ones 

I used to know my place was the 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, Miscommunications lead to far love 
So many things I wish that you knew 
So many walls that I can't break through 

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room 
And you're not speaking 
And I'm dying to know 
Is it killing you 
Like it's killing me 
And 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 

How did we end up this way? 
See me nervously pulling of my clothes and trying to look busy 
And you're doing your best to avoid me 
I'm starting to think that one day I'll tell the story of us 
Of how I was losing my mind when I saw you here 
But you held your pride like I should have held mine, 
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 you're not speaking 
And I'm dying to know 
Is it killing you 
Like it's killing me 

And 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 is your hand now 
But I would lay my armor down 
If you said you'd rather love then fight 

So many things you wish that I knew 
But the story of us might be ending soon 

Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room 
And you're not speaking 
And I'm dying to know 
Is it killing you 
Like it's killing me 
And 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 NOW! 

And were not speaking 
And I'm dying to know is it killing you
Like it's killing me? 

YEAH! 

And I don't know what to say since a twist of fate 
cause were going down. 
Cause the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
