I was six feet under
And upside down
Had a feeling you
Were taking
The ride around
But I loved you
Did you love me too

I was holding on
When you let me fall
What a big mistake
For a heart so small
So I tossed you
And you lost me too

And no
I don't need
Your permission
And no
I don't need
Your advice
I won't be under
The covers tonight

And u build me up
You build me high
Then you bring me down
And down and down
Till I'm in pain
You throw around

You build me up
You build so high
Then you bring down
And down
And underneath
The ground
Story of my life

I was torn apart
And I could not speak
Never saw you
As a fighter
Never felt so weak
But I missed you
Did you miss me too
And then I took a look

At the clothes I wear
What a mess I confess
You make me
So damn scared
Shame on you
Shame on me too

And no
I don't need
Your emission
And no
I don't need
No device
I won't be under
Your cover tonight

You build me up
You build me high
Then you
Bring me down
And down
And down
Till I'm in pain
You throw around

You build me up
You build so high
Then you
Bring me down
And down
And underneath
The ground
Story of my life

I loved you this once
And I'll love you again
I can yell I can scream
But I'll only pretend
Ur the soul in my heart
The heart in my soul
The wish in my well
Your well
In my control
I read u across
I can read u around
Build you so high
I can take you so down
You loved me this once
And you'll love me
You'll love me again

And you build me up
You build me high
Then u bring me down
And down
And down
Till I'm in pain
You throw around

You build me up
You build so high
Then you
Bring me down
And down
And down
N' down
N' down
Down
N' down
N' down
N' down
N' down
Down
N' down
N' down
N' down
N' down
Story of my life
