Story of My Life
EDDIE
Written in these walls are the stories that I can't explain

MIKE
Yes, Eddie. Remember. Remember

EDDIE
I leave my heart open but it stays right here empty for days

MIKE
She told me in the morning
She don't feel the same about us in her bones

EDDIE
It seems to me that when I die

EDDIE AND MIKE
These words will be written on my stone

BILL
And I'll be gone, gone tonight
The ground beneath my feet is open wide
The way that I been holdin' on too tight
With nothing in between

MIKE, BILL, EDDIE
The story of my life, I take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
Is frozen (the story of, the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
BEV
Hey, who does a girl have to fuck to get some friend rice around here?

MIKE
Beverly, you son of a bitch, get over here!

BEN
Got room for one more?

BILL
Is that…?

EDDIE
It can’t be

BEN
I told you, you wouldn’t recognize me. I’m the hot one, now

MIKE
Ben, you son of a bitch, get over here!

EDDIE
Written on these walls are
The colors that I can't change

MIKE
Leave my heart open
But it stays right here in its cage
BEN
I know that in the morning now
I see us in the light upon a hill

BEV
Although I am broken
My heart is untamed, still

BILL
And I'll be gone, g-g-gone tonight
The fire beneath my feet is burning bright
The way that I've been holdin' on so tight
With nothing in between

RICHIE
Wow, you all look amazing. What the fuck happened to me?

MIKE, EDDIE, BILL, BEV, BEN
Richie, you son of a bitch, get over here!

MIKE, EDDIE, BILL, BEV, BEN, RICHIE
The story of my life, I'll take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
MIKE
And I've been waiting for this time to come around
Return to Derry, Maine, and get killed by a clown
Okay guys, be honest. What was the first thing you did after I called you?

EDDIE
I’ll start. I got in a car accident

RICHIE
I threw up

BEV
My husband tried to kill me. Oh, but let’s move past that

BEN
My heart started beating really fast

BILL
That’s the best you’ve got? Your heart started b-b-beating really fast?

BEN
Oh, and what about you? What did you do after Mike called you?

BILL
I did what I always do. I thought of G-G-Georgie. How I wish he was still w-w-with us

The story of my life
I take him home
I drive all night
To keep him warm and time
Is frozen

EDDIE
He really needs to get rid of that arm

BILL
Shhhhh

MIKE, EDDIE, BILL, BEV, BEN, RICHIE
The story of my life, I'll take her home
I drive all night to keep her warm and time
Is frozen (the story of, the story of)
The story of my life, I give her hope
I spend her love until she's broke inside
The story of my life (the story of, the story of)
My life
The story of my life

BILL
The story of my l-l-
My l-l-l-

MIKE, EDDIE, BEV, BEN, RICHIE
Oooo
