How to hear/write a music story

Ok, this might sound a little strange, and I'm having trouble finding the right way to put this, but how do you hear the story in music? I look at videos and I hear people saying that you have to hear the story to understand, and it seems that they have story that everyone agrees with. I can formulate visions in my head, but how do you write and hear a music story? Do you have to know the background story or do you guys just understand the music like you understand words?

Hopefully, after my question is answered a discussion will arise because other wise this is a pretty pointless topic.
