Every story has a writer whose life has been inspired by love or a desire
To get inside of the mind of the reader or at least get to the next page
Every movie has a part where they get to the heart of the matter
Foreshadowing what might be happening whether or not there’s a trapdoor
In the floor of the stage
So I’m trying to read ‘cause I’m dying to see
Who I will be in the story of your life
Where will I be if you close the book tonight?
Am I the hero or the villain?
Is it a history or fiction?
Will I still be here in the end?
In the story of your life
In the story of your life
In the novel I’m writing I decided I’m using the actual identities instead
Misleading the people I love, ‘cause they’re the ones who need it the most
Every chapter is another beginning, a beginning to guess if my character’s in
Over his head ‘cause of something he said or maybe something he wrote
So I’m trying to read ‘cause I’m dying to see
Who I will be in the story of your life
Where will I be if you close the book tonight?
Am I the hero or the villain?
Is it a history or fiction?
Will I still be here in the end?
In the story of your life
Tell me, Juliet
Can we make it through this act without a tragedy?
Oh, let’s get through this scene ‘cause I’m dying to see…
If I will be in the story of your life
Where will I be if you close the book tonight?
Who will I be in the story of your life?
Where will I be if you hold the book tonight?
Who will I be… in the story of your life
In the story of your life
