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 plac

e was a spot next to you

Now I'm searching the ro

om for an empty seat

'Cause lately I don't even k

now what page you're on

Pre-Chorus

Oh, a simple compli

cation

Miscommuni

cations lead to fallout

So many things that I wish you knew

So many walls up that I can't break through

Chorus

Now I'm standing alo

ne 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 a twist of

fate, when it all broke

down

And the

story of us looks a

lot like a tragedy

now

Verse 2

N.C.

Next chapter

How'd we end up this

way?

See me nervously

pulling at my clothes and tryi

ng to look busy

And you're doing your bes

t to avoid me

I'm starting to think one d

ay I'll tell the story of us

Of h

ow I was losing my mind

when I saw you here

But you held your

pride like you should have hel

d me

Pre-Chorus

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 alo

ne in a crowded room

And we're not sp

eaking

And I'm dying to know

Is it killing you

like it's killing

me?

Yeah, and

I don't know what to sa

y since a twist of

fate, when it all broke

down

And the

story of us looks a

lot like a tragedy n

ow

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 si

de

The battle's in your hands now

But I would lay my armor down

If yo

u 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 al

one in a crowded room

And we're not sp

eaking

And I'm dying to know

Is it killing you

like it's killing

me?

Yeah, an

d I don't know what to

say since a twist of fa

te, when it all broke

down

And the s

tory of us looks a

lot like a tragedy

now, now, n

ow

And

we're not sp

eaking

And I'm dying to k

now is it killing you l

ike it's killing

me?

N.C.

Yeah

And I don't know what to

say since a twist of

fate, because we're going d

own

And the

story of us looks a

lot like a tragedy

now
