How The Story Goes Lyrics by Ben Below

Half-Sin, Half-Virtue

2019

You know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover
Or make decisions from opinions of others
You've got to figure it out on your own
You've got to see how the story goes
Sit down and let me tell you a tale
I'm sure that you'll have heard it before
It's a story as old
As you and me both
And then a little bit more
You see, out of town there's a princess
Trapped in the top of the tallest tower
And knight after knight have tried with all of their might
But it's out of their power
One day she shows up at the city
Hand in hand with a handsome elf
Everyone wrongly assumes that he saved her
But it was the princess who saved herself
You know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover
Or make decisions from opinions of others
You've got to figure it out on your own
You've got to see where the story goes
If you leave tonight
You'll never know
How our story goes
How our story goes
We need the tin man who is looking for courage
And the lion who demands a heart
We need the leaders who are feeling discouraged
And the loners keen to do their part
We need to challenge more expectations
Fight the skirmishes as well as the war
We need to stop ourselves becoming complacent
Not just do it like we have before
You know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover
Or make decisions from opinions of others
You've got to figure it out on your own
You've got to see how the story goes
If you leave tonight
You'll never know
How our story goes
How our story goes
Don't let them tell you how it's done, just 'cause
That's not how their story goes
Don't let them tell you how your race was run, no
That's not how your story grows
You know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover
Or make decisions from opinions of others
You've got to figure it out on your own
You've got to see how the story goes
You know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover
Or make decisions from opinions of others
You've got to figure it out on your own
You've got to see how the story goes
If you leave tonight
(You know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover)
You'll never know
(Or make decisions from opinions of others)
How our story goes
(You've got to figure it out on your own)
How our story
(You've got to see how the story)
If you leave tonight
You'll never know
How our story goes
