Story of My LIfe
Brianna Taylor Lyrics

I was six feet under
I was in a bad place or feeling very low

And upside down
Feeling disoriented or confused

Had a feeling you
Sensing something was not right with the situation

Were taking
Going on without me or leaving me behind

The ride around
Going on an adventure or experiencing new things

But I loved you
I cared deeply for you

Did you love me too
Questioning the other person's feelings

I was holding on
Trying to keep the relationship going or maintain a connection

When you let me fall
Feeling betrayed or hurt by the other person's actions

What a big mistake
Realizing that the situation was not healthy or beneficial to me

For a heart so small
Despite my small stature, my feelings were strong and valid

So I tossed you
Ending the relationship or cutting ties with the other person

And you lost me too
The other person lost me along with the relationship

And no I don't need
Asserting my independence and autonomy

Your permission
I don't need your approval or consent

And no I don't need
Reiterating my independence and autonomy

Your advice
I don't need your guidance or suggestions

I wont be under
I won't be controlled or oppressed by the other person

The covers tonight
I won't be hiding or feeling guilty for my actions

And u build me up
The other person made me feel good or positive about myself

You build me high
The other person elevated my spirits or self-esteem

Then you bring me down
The other person subsequently made me feel bad or negative

And down and down
This cycle of uplifting and subsequently crashing repeated itself

Till im in pain
The emotional rollercoaster was taking a toll on me

You throw around
The other person's actions were erratic and unpredictable

And underneath
Feeling buried or overwhelmed by the other person's actions

The ground
Feeling stuck or trapped in a negative situation

I was torn apart
Feeling emotionally devastated or broken

And I could not speak
Feeling unable to express myself or communicate effectively

Never saw you
Not realizing the other person's true intentions or character

As a fighter
Not seeing the other person as someone who would stand up for me

Never felt so weak
Feeling vulnerable or powerless in the situation

But I missed you
Despite everything, still feeling attached to the other person

Did you miss me too
Questioning the other person's feelings

And then I took a look
Reflecting on the situation and my own actions

At the clothes I wear
Examining my own appearance or behavior

What a mess I confess
Admitting that I had made mistakes

You make me
Feeling like the other person caused my problems or insecurities

So damn scared
Feeling afraid or intimidated by the other person's actions

Shame on you
Blaming the other person for their actions or behavior

Shame on me too
Taking responsibility for my own mistakes or role in the situation

And no
Asserting my independence and autonomy

I don't need
Reiterating that I am capable of making my own decisions

Your emission
I don't need your approval or validation

No device
I don't need your tricks or manipulation

I won't be under
I won't be controlled or oppressed by the other person

Your cover tonight
I won't be hiding or feeling guilty for my actions

I loved you this once
Remembering a time when my feelings for the other person were strong

And Ill love you again
Despite everything, still feeling attached to the other person

I can yell I can scream
Expressing emotions in a loud and intense manner

But Ill only pretend
Feeling like my emotions or actions are not genuine

Ur the soul in my heart
Feeling deeply attached to the other person

The heart in my soul
Feeling like the other person completes me or is essential to my being

The wish in my well
Feeling like my desire for the other person is insatiable

Your well
Feeling like the other person has a hold on me or control over me

In my control
Feeling like I have power over the other person, despite my feelings of attachment

I read u across
Feeling like I can understand the other person's thoughts and feelings

I can read u around
Feeling like I am attuned to the other person's behavior and actions

Build you so high
Wanting to elevate the other person's status or standing

I can take you so down
Feeling like I have power over the other person's emotions or well-being

You loved me this once
Acknowledging that the other person once cared deeply for me

And you'll love me
Believing that the other person's feelings for me will return

And down
Feeling like my emotions are in a state of decline or instability

N down
Repeating the previous sentiment

Story of my life
Summing up the repeated cycle of feelings and actions in the relationship
