• The Story Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let me tell you a story
About a boy and a girl
It’s kinda short kinda boring
But the end is a whirl
They were just 16
When the people were mean
So they didn’t love themselves
And now they’re gone
Headstones on a lawn

[Verse 2]
When I was younger
I knew a boy and a boy
Best friends with each other
But always wished they were more
‘Cause they loved one another
But never discovered ‘cause they were too afraid
Of what they’d say
Moved to different states

[Chorus]
Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works
It ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet
Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
It’s not the end of the story

[Verse 3]
Now it's on to the sequel
About me and my friend
Both our parents were evil
So we both made a bet
If we worked and we saved
We could both run away
And we’d have a better life
And I was right
I wonder if she’s alright

[Chorus]
Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works
It ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet
Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
It’s not the end of the story, Ok

[Bridge]
And the movie’s always running in my head
All the people, all the lovers, all my friends
And I hope that they’ll all get their happy end
In the end

[Chorus]
Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works
It ain’t funny, it ain’t pretty, it ain’t sweet
Oh, and I’m afraid that’s just the way the world works
But I think that it could work for you and me
Just wait and see
It’s not the end of the story

I just heard this wonderful work of art in "The Eighth Sense" and I couldn't wait to listen to all of it. I love it 👌👌❣️

[amirah]

look at conan dropping the best song of the year in the second week of january

[ominouscandle]

I feel like a loser for not knowing who this guy was before hand. I think I've been missing out on something awesome.

[gru]

THIS MADE ME CRY AND NOW I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FEEL CAUSE IM GLAD ITS OUT BUT ITS LIKE

[min-rtfp]

i cry everytime i listen to this and its been on repeat for like an hour

[elenabarone]

The saddest part is this is actually how the world is

[mushroomtherat]

I love this song and it puts me into pain because my friend liked someone the same gender and her mom found out and forced her to move away and cut contact with the girl she liked. It was me who she liked... miss ya Addie

[skydreams]

Who else is on a hunt for all his other songs after "Heather?"

[christina]

"Best friend with each-other, but always wished they were more"....this sentence screams "LARRY"

[sofiavalles]

"If we worked and we saved, we could both run away and we'd have a better life and i was right, i wonder if she's alrigth"
Bro, those simple letters have me thinking a lot, I mean they both had dreams and hopes and the boy could fulfill them but at some point something happened that now he no longer knows anything about her, and that's fuck up and sad cause that is actually how life works

[dodohan]

This is somewhat relatable but at the same time makes me empathize with conan he's such an amazing writer im crying im so proud of him

[maddiekap]

I'm crying because i finally found a soulful artist who's music i love, and who's music i connect with. i just want to be your friend so bad lol
