"The Story" lyrics

"The Story"
(from American Song Contest)

This is the part of the story where I'm gonna start
The scene opens on a girl with a broken heart
She's been running so long, running so far
Like the rest of us, wondering where the hell we are

You better hold on, there's a little plot twist
Didn't think it would happen like this

This part makes me so emotional
Just a girl in a lonely world
Just praying for a miracle
Afraid she won't see
But that's not the end of the story

Smash cut to the scene, living high on the hog
Caviar and diamonds, you've seen the montage
They clap for her, they adore him
But the audience is yelling, look around the corner

Better hold on, there's a little plot twist
Didn't think it would happen like this

This part makes me so emotional
Only in battle does your courage grow
She was biding for a miracle
Afraid she won't see
But that's not the end of the story

Life is so dramatic
All I need is so fanatical
Worryin', hurryin'
Just became so automatical (Just the beginning)
Life is so dramatic
All I need is so fanatical
Worrying, hurrying
Just became so automatical

My life fades up on a girl in the dark
It took a couple years but she healed her heart
You better hold on, there's always a plot twist
I've seen the movie, and the moral of it is

Life can be so emotional
For a girl in a lonely world
She finally got a miracle
Better than she could have dreamed

But that's not the end of the story
From the ashes [?]
Oh, isn't life a miracle?
The pain and the glory
That's still not the end of the story

Life is so dramatic
All I need is so fanatical
Worrying, hurrying
Just became so automatical
Life is so dramatic
All I need is so fanatical
Worrying, hurrying
Just became so automatical
But that's not the end of the story
