New Rules sing and play along

Talking in my sleep at night,

making myself crazy.

(Out of my mind, out of my mind.)

Wrote it down and read it out,

hoping 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'll have to kick him out again.

Three, don't be his friend;

you know you're gonna 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 gotta tell them to myself.)

(I got new rules, I count 'em.)

(I gotta tell them to myself.)

I keep pushing forwards, but he keeps pulling me backwards.

(Nowhere to turn, nowhere to turn.)

Now I'm standing back from it,

I fin'lly 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:

(I gotta tell them to myself.)

Practice makes perfect;

I'm still tryin' to learn it by heart.

got new rules, I count 'em.)

Eat, sleep and breathe it, rehearse and repeat it,

'cause I...

got new, I got new, I,

I, I...)

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'll have to kick him out again.

Three, don't be his friend;

you know you're gonna 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 gotta tell them to myself.)

(I got new rules, I count 'em.)

(I gotta tell them to myself.)

let him in, don't let him in,

don't, don't, don't, don't.

Don't be his friend, don't be his friend,

don't, don't, don't, don't.

Don't let him in, don't let him in,

don't, don't, don't, don't.

Don't be his friend, don't be his friend,

don't, don't, don't, don't.

Don't don't, don't.

You're getting over him.
