(Once)
I didn't know you
But I saw your trash on the curb
(Once)
I'd sit there and watch it
But I couldn't find any words
(Now)
I think I found them
Turns out you've got some words of your own
(Now)
Let's try to hide them for
(Once)
This story
This story

(Once)
You name the questions and
I'll try to hum back the words
(Once)
They'll see it our way when
We promise no one gets hurt
(Now)
Let's visualize it again
We'll write it right off the page
(Now)
Feels so imaginary
(Once)
This story
This story

(Once)
You look so happy together
(Once)
You seem so happy together
(Now)
This story's falling
It's falling
(Now)
This story (once) keeps falling down

(Once)
You look so happy together
(Once)
You seem so happy together
(Now)
This story's over
It's over
(Now)
This story (once) keeps falling down
