Intro:
I know where I stand, I'm walking away
You talking to other guys I'm not the one for you
I know where I stand, I'm letting you go
I hope you find your happiness
Verse 1:
You'll never gonna change even your clothes are the same
Do you really think a real man will be with someone like you
I know where I stand, I can do better even more
I know where I stand, I'm better than what you think
I can't be with someone
(One day we're good and the next we're 2 strangers without a heart)
I'm better off alone in my life I can't stand the things you do
You pull me close just to push me more
I can't do this anymore I can't stand you (I'll be on my own)
Pre-chorus:
I know what I want I know where I stand
I'm closing this book I'm leaving you alone
All the chapters are burned when you will learn, when will you learn
Are you waiting till you get burned?
Chorus:
Pictures and memories I'm burning them all
You're not worth my time there's someone waiting next door
Open doors are waiting for me, I don't want your love
I'm ready to let go I know where I stand
Far away from you I’m so over you (over you)
Verse 2:
Fuck what you say forget what we had
Everybody knows you're nothing but a joke
A lonely soul will never make it on its own
You tear me down Then act like I’m the fault
Everybody knows who I really am you never going to change
Even your clothes they are all the same
You cry, you can whine it's not going to bring me back
I know where I stand, I'm getting better more each day
Bridge:
I know where I stand- I'm stronger more each day
I know who I am- loyal and caring it's who I am
I'm not looking back (you burned me so bad)
Chorus:
Pictures and memories I'm burning them all
You're not worth my time there's someone waiting next door
Open doors are waiting for me, I don't want your love
I'm ready to let go I know where I stand
Far away from you I’m so over you (over you)
Chorus:
Pictures and memories I'm burning them all
You're not worth my time there's someone waiting next door
Open doors are waiting for me, I don't want your love
I'm ready to let go I know where I stand
Far away from you I’m so over you (over you)
Outro:
Checkmate- Game over for you I don't follow rules, I am the rule
(I can't control everything I do)
Checkmate- Stop comparing me cause I know where I stand
I know who I am, I'm not playing the fool
Cause it's game over for you
A note from the lyricist
This song is about finding the strength to walk away from a relationship that no longer feels healthy or fulfilling. The narrator has reached a turning point, realizing their worth and accepting that they deserve better than the uncertainty and disappointment they've experienced. Rather than holding on to false hope, they choose to let go and move forward. The lyrics convey a mix of frustration, self-confidence, and closure. While there is disappointment in seeing that the other person has not changed,
