Story of My LIfe
kezz-i Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Passed out the night before
And it's all a blur, except for her
I stared at her from across the room
Another drink and then I'll make a move
Who do you think I am
I don't think I can do this
Intimidation plays a part
To the center of my heart
Now I'm not so clueless
I finally see the light
I'll save myself the trouble for tonight
It's the story of my life
Here we go it's another night
The beer is flowing and I feel alright
Then she walks in, and it begins (Again)
I wanna go but my friends say stay
Try not to stare but it's hard to look away
She still has no idea.
I don't think I can do this
Intimidation plays a part
Rejections like a stab-wound
To the center of my heart
Now I'm not so clueless
I finally see the light
I'll save myself the trouble for tonight
It's the story of my life
Had the chance and I made my choice
just to stare and never use m voice
Now I'm counting my regrets
Hit the pillow, take a breath
Making myself crazy and I'm
Such a mess, I'm such a mess
Grabbed my life and I took control
All the tears and depression got so old
That was no way to live
I don't think I can do this
Intimidation plays a part
Rejections like a stab-wound
To the center of my heart
Now I'm not so clueless
I finally see the light
I'll save myself the trouble for tonight
It's the story of my life
It's the story of my life
And how it used to be
It's the story of my life
And how it used to be
It's the story of my life
