lyrics

the story of our lives
in it's cinematic debut
cold open to a scene of our room
there's me believing i deserved you
and there's you
You're still there too
it's a tasteful retelling
of a plot we've all seen
two people connected
seem bound for destiny
the soft focus on our mouths
young lovers memorize all the words
but in the big scene, i'll blank on my lines
as they're screaming cut and raise the house lights up
i'll stare at the ground and know i've missed my chance
years spent preparing the role
now i cannot go home
I cant carry this weight
i cant meet your gaze
