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
My love, 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 calling
'Cause he's drunk and alone
Two, don't let him in
You have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the mornin'
And if you're under him
You ain't getting over him
I got new rules, I count 'em
I got new rules, I count 'em
I 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 to turn, nowhere to turn) no
Now I'm standing back from it, I finally see the pattern
(I never learn, I never learn)
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 calling
'Cause he's drunk and alone
Two, don't let him in
You have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the mornin'
And if you're under him
You ain't getting over him
I got new rules, I count 'em
I got new rules, I count 'em
I gotta tell them to myself
I got new rules, I count 'em
I gotta tell them to myself
Practice makes perfect
I'm still tryna' learn it by heart, oh woh
Eat, sleep, and breathe it
Rehearse and repeat it, 'cause I, oohh oh
One, don't pick up the phone
You know he's only calling
'Cause he's drunk and alone
Two, don't let him in
You have to kick him out again
Three, don't be his friend
You know you're gonna wake up in his bed in the mornin'
And if you're under him
You ain't getting over him
I got new rules, I count 'em
I got new rules, I count 'em
I gotta tell them to myself
I got new rules, I count 'em
I gotta tell them to myself
