I nodded to Leo telling him i was going solo. I needed to do this.

You've been runnin' round, runnin' round, runnin' round throwin' that dirt all on my name
'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd call you up
You've been going round, going round, going round every party in L.A.
'Cause you knew that I, knew that I, knew that I'd be at one, oh

I know that dress is karma, perfume regret
You got me thinking 'bout when you were mine, oh
And now I'm all up on ya, what you expect?
But you're not coming home with me tonight

You just want attention, you don't want my heart
Maybe you just hate the thought of me with someone new
Yeah, you just want attention, I knew from the start
You're just making sure I'm never gettin' over you

"To my EXgirlfriend,Chloe!" I said to the crowd,after finishing half the song.

"Next is a cover that we enjoyed recording, hope you all enjoy! " Leo introduced.

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 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

I started singing until Leo cuts me off, singing the next sentence.

"And if you're under him, you ain't getting over him" he sang looking into my eyes.

I got new rules, I count 'em
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself

Leo took a deep breath and started rapping, all while looking at me.

You're out, I'm in, I don't know I can't win
Friend tryna get between us, they should quit the talking
We stay up late, we could talk till morning
Everybody envious, I tell 'em keep on walking
Drop in, everybody makin' sure we okay
I know we end up goin' in like students on a snow day
Okay, go ahead, show 'em what you made of
Baby you're the baddest but we can't forget what made us
Thanks, we made our thing. Baby that we made one
Just because of this we shouldn't throw it all away ah
And you know you drive me crazy
Don't listen to your friends, you know you are my baby

I sang mindlessly, trying to figure out what Leondre's thinking.

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 getting over him

I got new rules, I count 'em
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself
I've got new rules, I count 'em
I've gotta tell them to myself

Thinkin' about everything we left it can be haunting, but look into the future and I see
Nothing is so clear as if I'm looking in the mirror, we are meant to be
I know the road it gets rough. The times they get tough, I'm always at your side
Our feet they are heavy, our aims are ran steady, all I want is for you to be mine.
