Story Of My Life
One Direction(원 디렉션) Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days
She told me in the morning
She don't feel the same about us in her bones
It seems to me that when I die
These words will be written on my stone
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
The way that I've been holdin' on too tight
With nothing in between
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke, inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
Written on these walls are
The colors that I can't change
Leave my heart open
But it stays right here in it's cage
I know that in the morning now
I see us in the light upon a hill
Although I am broken, my heart is untamed, still
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
The fire beneath my feet is burning bright
The way that I've been holdin' on so tight
With nothing in between
The story of my life, I'll take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke, inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
And I've been waiting for this time to come around
But baby running after you is like chasing the clouds
The story of my life
I take her home
I drive all night
To keep her warm and time
Is frozen
The story of my life I give her hope (give her hope)
I spend her love until she's broke (until she's broke inside)
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life
The lyrics to One Direction's "Story of My Life" depict a struggle with love and loss. The writer of the lyrics seems to be haunted by past stories that he can't explain, which are "written in these walls." His heart is open, but he still feels empty – perhaps because of a recent breakup. The heartbreak is intensified when his lover tells him she doesn't feel the same way about them anymore. It's as if these words will be etched onto his tombstone when he dies.
The second stanza describes the pain of holding onto something so tight, while there is nothing left to cling on to. Even though his heart is open, it still feels caged in. In the morning, he seems to have a clearer view of things, and he sees himself and his lover "in the light upon a hill," giving him hope that they can work things out. The chorus repeats, highlighting the joy of the writer taking his lover home and holding onto her tightly.
The final verse, "And I've been waiting for this time to come around, but baby running after you is like chasing the clouds," captures the struggle of wanting a lover who is just out of reach. The story of his life, then, becomes a series of moments where he tried to hold onto something but ultimately failed.

ME!!!
Anyways here’s a recipe for chocolate chip cookies
Ingredients:
(for 12 cookies)
* ½ cup granulated sugar (100 g)
* ¾ cup brown sugar (165 g), packed
* 1 teaspoon salt
* ½ cup unsalted butter (115 g), melted
* 1 large egg
* 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
* 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour (155 g)
* ½ teaspoon baking soda
* 4 oz milk or semi-sweet chocolate chunks (110 g)
* 4 oz dark chocolate chunk (110 g), or your preference
Directions:
1: In a large bowl, whisk together the sugars, salt, and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
2: Whisk in the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall off the whisk and remain for a short while before falling back into the mixture.
3: Sift in the flour and baking soda, then fold the mixture with a spatula (Be careful not to overmix, which would cause the gluten in the flour to toughen resulting in cakier cookies).
4: Fold in the chocolate chunks, then chill the dough for at least 30 minutes. For a more intense toffee-like flavor and deeper color, chill the dough overnight. The longer the dough rests, the more complex its flavor will be.
5: Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
6: Scoop the dough with an ice-cream scoop onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, leaving at least 4 inches (10 cm) of space between cookies and 2 inches (5 cm) of space from the edges of the pan so that the cookies can spread evenly.
7: Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges have started to barely brown.
8: Cool completely before serving.
ENJOY 😊❤️
