[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
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 doesnt love me, so I tell myself, I tell myself
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
One: Dont pick up the phone
~#**************#~
You know hes only callin cause hes drunk and alone
~#**************#~
Two: Dont let him in
~#**************#~
Youll have to kick him out again
~#**************#~
Three: Dont be his friend
~#**************#~
You know youre gonna wake up in his bed in the morning
~#**************#~
And if youre under him, you aint gettin over him
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I got new rules, I count em
~#**************#~
I got new rules, I count em
~#**************#~
I gotta tell them to myself
~#**************#~
I got new, I got new
~#**************#~
I gotta tell them to myself
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
I keep pushin forwards, but he keeps pullin me backwards
~#**************#~
(Nowhere to turn, no way)
~#**************#~
(Nowhere to turn, no)
~#**************#~
Now Im standin back from it, I finally see the pattern
~#**************#~
(I never learn, I never learn)
~#**************#~
But my love, he doesnt love me, so I tell myself, I tell myself
~#**************#~
I do, I do, I do
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
One: Dont pick up the phone
~#**************#~
You know hes only callin cause hes drunk and alone
~#**************#~
Two: Dont let him in
~#**************#~
Youll have to kick him out again
~#**************#~
Three: Dont be his friend
~#**************#~
You know youre gonna wake up in his bed in the morning
~#**************#~
And if youre under him, you aint gettin over him
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I got new rules, I count em
~#**************#~
I got new rules, I count em
~#**************#~
I gotta tell them to myself
~#**************#~
I got new, I got new
~#**************#~
I gotta tell them to myself
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Practice makes perfect
~#**************#~
Im still tryna learn it by heart (I got new rules, I count em)
~#**************#~
Eat, sleep, and breathe it
~#**************#~
Rehearse and repeat it, cause I… (I got new…)
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
One: Dont pick up the phone (yeah)
~#**************#~
You know hes only callin cause hes drunk and alone (alone)
~#**************#~
Two: Dont let him in (uh-ooh)
~#**************#~
Youll have to kick him out again (again)
~#**************#~
Three: Dont be his friend
~#**************#~
You know youre gonna wake up in his bed in the morning
~#**************#~
And if youre under him, you aint gettin over him
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
I got new rules, I count em
~#**************#~
I got new rules, I count em
~#**************#~
I gotta tell them to myself
~#**************#~
(Whoa-ooh, whoa-ooh, whoa)
~#**************#~
I-I-I-I-I-I gotta tell them to myself
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
Dont let him in, dont let him in
~#**************#~
Dont, dont, dont, dont…
~#**************#~
Dont be his friend, dont be his friend
~#**************#~
Dont, dont, dont, dont…
~#**************#~
Dont let him in, dont let him in
~#**************#~
Dont, dont, dont, dont…
~#**************#~
Dont be his friend, dont be his friend
~#**************#~
Dont, dont, dont, dont…
~#**************#~
Youre gettin over him
