Lyrics of
The Story

The Story by Brandi Carlile, penned by Phil Hanseroth, dives into the deep understanding and connection between close individuals, reflecting on how even the scars and past experiences shape who we are, appreciated by those who truly love us. It draws from the personal experiences of the composers, emphasizing the notion that everyone has a unique story.

All of these lines across my face tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been and how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything, when you've got no one to tell them to
It's true, I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops swimming across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Oh, because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks you do
I was made for you


N.C.
Its hiding the words that don't come out
All of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head's a mess
No they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through like you do
and I was made for you

All of these lines across my face tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been and how I got to where I am
Oh, but these stories don't mean anything
when you've got no one to tell them to
It's true, I was made for you
Oh yeah well it's true, I was made for you
