Taylor Swift’s The Story of Us became quite popular soon after its release. Read full lyrics below
Verse 1
- I used to think one day, we’d tell the story of us
- How we met, and the sparks flew instantly
- And people would say, they’re the lucky ones
- I used to know my place was a 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

Pre-Chorus 1
- Oh, a simple complication
- Miscommunications lead to fallout
- So many things that I wish you knew
- So many walls up, I can’t break through
Chorus
- Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
- And we’re not speaking
- And I’m dying to know
- Is it killing you like it’s killing me?
- Yeah, I don’t know what to say
- Since the twist of fate when it all broke down
- And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
- Next chapter
Verse 2
- How’d we end up this way?
- See me nervously pulling at my clothes and trying to look busy
- And you’re doing your best to avoid me
- I’m starting to think one day, I’ll tell the story of us
- How I was losing my mind when I saw you here
- But you held your pride like you should’ve held me
Pre-Chorus 2
- 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
Chorus
- Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
- And we’re 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 the twist of fate, when it all broke down
- And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
Bridge
- 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’s in your hands now
- But I would lay my armor down
- If you say you’d rather love than fight
- So many things that you wish I knew
- But the story of us might be ending soon
Chorus
- Now I’m standing alone in a crowded room
- And we’re 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 the twist of fate, when it all broke down
- And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now, now, now
Outro
- And we’re not speaking
- And I’m dying to know
- Is it killing you like it’s killing me, yeah?
- I don’t know what to say since the twist of fate
- ‘Cause we’re going down
- And the story of us looks a lot like a tragedy now
- The End
