new rules x are you that somebody?

talkin' in my sleep at night

makin' myself crazy

wrote it down and read it out

hopin' it would save me

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 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 gonna wake up

in his bed in the morning

and if you're under him

you ain't gettin' over him

i've got new rules

i count 'em

i've got new rules

i count 'em

are you that somebody?

tell me are you that somebody?

i've got new rules

i count 'em

are you that somebody?

i've gotta tell them to myself

i keep pushin' forwards

but he keeps pullin' me backwards

now i'm standin' back from it

i finally see the pattern

but my love he doesn't love me

so i tell myself i tell myself
