The Story of My Life

Have you ever heard of a group named One Direction? They are a teen music group in which there are five men which always sing about their teen point of view of life. Can you still remember that period of life? Everything was important then, wasn't it? You may remember how every bad event seemed to happen just to you, and you would always wonder:"Why is it happening to me?". Anyway, one of the most typical teens' obsessions is the relationships between them and other people. They worry about their new discussions with parents and grandparents, they worry because their whole life lasting friends are not what they seemed to be and, of course, they worry for their love feelings. Whether they are good or not on these important facts (and they usually are not), they all agree, when they grow up, that their past mistakes have helped them to write the story of their lives. In fact, it's this story what makes them realise they are genuine survivors of life. It makes them feel they're strong and they realise life is not perfect but memories are sweet. Don't you agree? One Direction does and they sing it in their own song: The story of my life. Have a look and enjoy!

Lyrics:
 
Written in these walls are the stories that I can’t explain
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

And I’ll be gone, gone tonight
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
The way that I 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 colours that I can’t change
Leave my heart open but it stays right here in its cage 

I know that in the morning
I'll see us in the light upon your ear
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 been holdin’ on so 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)

And I 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 inside (until she’s broken 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.
