[Verse]
I keep pushin' forwards, but he keeps pullin' me backwards
(Nowhere to turn, no way, nowhere to turn, no)
Now I'm standin' back from it, I finally see the pattern
(I never learn, I never learn)
[Refrain]
But my love
He doesn't love me, so I tell myself, I tell myself
I do, I do, I do
[Pre-Chorus]
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 mornin'
And if you're under him, you ain't gettin' over him
[Chorus]
I got new rules, I count 'em
I gotta tell them to myself
I got new rules, I count 'em
[Drop]
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
