Before you say things I like 

Try to read between the lines 

Cause we've fallen down 

To many times 



And now I'm leaving don't you stand in front of me 

Or where I want to be 

Where I wanna be 



Before you say 

I'd like to know where I stand 

I'm on my way 

I'd like to say my goodbyes 



Before you waste your breath 

Think back to the rest 

Cause we've fallen apart 

So many times 

You start to realize that we're not as strong as we 

Might of thought we'd be 

Might of thought we'd be 



Before you say 

I'd like to know where I stand 

I'm on my way 

I'd like to say my goodbyes 

Before you say 

This is where I stand 

I'd like to know where I stand 

This is where I stand 

I'm on my way 

This is where I stand 

And I'd like the time to say my goodbyes 



Excuse me this my life your messing with 

And I'm tired of telling you 

This is what I want to do 

And I'm asking you 

Don't stand in my way 



Before you'd stand in front of me 

Before you would stand in front of me 



Before you say 

I'd like to know where I stand 

I'm on my way 

I'd like to say my goodbyes 

Before you say 

This is where I stand 

I'd like to know where I stand 

This is where I stand 

I'm on my way 

This is where I stand 

And I'd like the time to say my goodbyes 



Excuse me please 

This is my life you're messing with 

And I'm tired of telling you 

But I guess 

You'll never understand
