New Rules

Oh no

Talkin' in my sleep at night

Makin' myself crazy

(Out of my mind, out of my mind)

Wrote it down and read it out

Hopin' it would save me

(Too many times, too many times)

Oh, he makes me feel like nobody else

Nobody else

But my love

He doesn't love me so I tell myself

I tell myself

One, don't pick up the phone

You know he's only callin'

'Cause he's drunk and alone

Two, don't let him in

You'll have to kick him out again

Three, don't be his friend

You know you're wanna wake up

In his bed in the morning

And if you're under him

You ain't gettin' over him

I got new rules, I count 'em

I got new rules, I count 'em

I've gotta tell them to myself

I got new rules, I count 'em

(I gotta tell them to myself)

I keep pushin' forwards

But he keeps pullin' me backwards

(Nowhere, nowhere to turn)

(Nowhere, nowhere to turn)

Now I'm standin' back from it

I finally see the pattern

(I never learn, I never learn)

But my love

He doesn't love me, so I tell myself

I tell myself

I do, I do, I do

One, don't pick up the phone

You know he's only callin'

'Cause he's drunk and alone

Two, don't let him in

You'll have to kick him out again

Three, don't be his friend

You know you're wanna wake up

In his bed in the morning

And if you're under him

You ain't gettin' over him

I got new rules, I count 'em

I got new rules, I count 'em

I've gotta tell them to myself

I got new rules, I count 'em

Practice makes perfect

I'm still tryna learn it by heart

Eat, sleep and breathe it

Rehearse and repeat it, 'cause I

I, I, I

One, don't pick up the phone

You know he's only callin'

'Cause he's drunk and alone

Two, don't let him in

You'll have to kick him out again

Three, don't be his friend

You know you're wanna wake up

In his bed in the morning

And if you're under him

You ain't gettin' over him

I got new rules, I count 'em

(Ooh-ooh)

(I got new rules, I count 'em)

I got new rules, I count 'em

(Whoa-oh)

(I got new rules, I count 'em)

I gotta tell them to myself

(Ooh-ooh)

I got new rules, I count 'em

(Ooh-ooh-ooh)

(Ah-ah-ah)
