Rules - Arlissa

Mother taught me not to give too much away

Father taught me tender hearts are bound to break

And now I’m just confused

'Cause they broke all the rules

Said one thing, they did the other

Now I’m good at friends but I’m bad at lovers

Oh, oh, there I go giving my heart away

Thought it would heal the pain

Oh, oh, there I go making the same mistakes

Don’t wanna start again

The rules of, rules of love

Keep changing, keep swaying

The rules of, rules of love

Keep changing, keep swaying

In different directions, keep giving me lessons

All I ever really learn

The rules of, rules of love

Sometimes people break 'em

They taught me to get jealous, taught me how to fight

Taught me to pretend like everything’s alright

Said one thing, they did the other

Now I’m good at friends but I’m bad at lovers

Oh, oh, there I go giving my heart away

Thought it would heal the pain

Oh, oh, there I go making the same mistakes

Don’t wanna start again

The rules of, rules of love

Keep changing, keep swaying

The rules of, rules of love

Keep changing, keep swaying

In different directions, keep giving me lessons

All I ever really learn

The rules of, rules of love

Why is it all so complicated?

Won’t somebody please explain it

Said one thing but did the other

Now I’m good at friends but I’m bad at lovers

The rules of, rules of love

Keep changing, keep swaying

The rules of, rules of love

Keep changing, keep swaying

In different directions, keep giving me lessons

All I ever really learn

The rules of, rules of love

Sometimes people break 'em

Sometimes people break 'em

'Cause they said one thing and did the other

Now I’m good at friends but bad at lovers

I’m bad at lovers
