[Verse 1]

I said I hate you, I was angry

I got so mad, I slammed your door

You know I really love you, baby

I didn't mean to start a war

And I know there's a line, but I crossed it

And I pray that it won't leave a scar

I said I hate you, but I'm sorry

Sometimes I wish you'd cut me off

[Chorus]

Maybe I should think before I talk

I get emotional and words come out all wrong

Sometimes I'm more honest than I want

So maybe I should think before

Maybe next time, I'll think before I talk

[Verse 2]

I try my best to make it better (Better)

I'm all out of apologies (Apologies)

You know I'm not good under pressure (Pressure)

'Cause hurting you is hurting me (Hurting me)

I took all that we built and I broke it (Broke it)

And I pray it won't tear us apart

So let me piece it back together

I know I cut you pretty deep (Know I cut you pretty deep)

[Chorus]

Maybe I should think before I talk

I get emotional and words come out all wrong

Sometimes I'm more honest than I want

So maybe I should think before

Maybe next time, I'll think before

I know that I should think before I speak

'Cause I'm saying things that I don't even mean

Maybe I'm more honest than I wanna be

So maybe I should think before

Maybe next time, I'll think before I

[Bridge]

Say something I might regret

And I might get too far under your skin

I can't lie, I wish we could try it again

Oh, I, I wish we could try it again

[Chorus]

Maybe I should think before I talk

I get emotional and words come out all wrong

Sometimes I'm more honest than I want

So maybe I should think before

Maybe next time, I'll think before

I know that I should think before I speak

'Cause I'm saying things that I don't even mean

Maybe I'm more honest than I wanna be

So maybe I should think before

Maybe next time, I'll think before I talk

[Outro]

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, ah

So maybe I should think before

Maybe next time, I'll think before I talk
