What's your story?

What's your story?
Is it a sop story too
Cause seemingly everyone claims too
And maybe there's not a good story to tell out here

What's your story?
Is it worth even telling at first
Or you believe it needs to be told
That's why you get all grumpy when no one wants to listen 

What's your story?
Why do you think yours has the punch
And are you sure we don't have a story like yours out here?
Or you just want to tell yours too

I ask cause why should anyone care in the first place
Cause if you're doing it just for people to care,
Then are you really living?
Or you're just doing what all the others before you have done 

Must you curve out a name and still make everyone say it
I thought the greatest satisfaction comes from knowing you did it
Or doesn't it count until they all know?
That's why I ask What's your story?

My story is already out there
But I'm sure you missed it
Cause we only relate to stories closer to us
That's why we live on hurting each other cause why should you care?
